A backup is a copy of a site that is kept on a different web server and could be restored if something wrong happens with the live site - a defeated script update, an unintended deletion of some file or of the whole database, etc. Restoring the site the way it was will remove or decrease the damage the issue may have caused, that is by all means a certainly better option than having to reconstruct your entire site from scratch. Though you could download a copy of your content on your personal computer, keeping a backup is a function that most hosting companies include as part of their packages. It's important to take a look at how frequently they do that, though, because some service providers generate a backup just once every week, which can be far from enough for a booking site or an e-commerce portal where the data is updated each day. It's also advisable to see how fast and easy a backup can be restored, which could be vital if some problem appears on your site.
