CPanel is a fully featured web-based control panel that allows you to manage your domain through a web interface. The idea is to transfer as much of the control of managing your web site to you. You have the ability to manage all aspects of e-mail, files, backup, FTP, CGI scripts and web site statistics.

for the routine backup (usually daily or weekly) before downloading
the backup.

Click
on the Backup button on the home page.
-
Click
on the Generate/Download a Full Backup link.

on the location for the backup from the Backup Destination
drop-down list. The following locations are available:
-

Directory - Saves the backup in the public_html
level of your site.

FTP server.

passive (PASV) mode FTP transfer. Please refer to your hosting
administrator or the remote FTP server if you have questions
about passive mode transfer.
-
Enter
your e-mail address in the Email Address field.
An e-mail will be sent to this address when the backup has completed.
