A backup of a site is a copy of its content, that is kept on some other web server and could be restored if something happens. This feature is rather efficient, since you can never know if a script update will not fail or if you will not erase something by mistake - a file, a folder, a database entry, etcetera. If your Internet site is backed up, it could be restored the way it was prior to when the problem appeared, so there shall not be any damage, or at least it'll be very little, based on the particular scenario. Keeping backups on your personal computer isn't very feasible, simply because you would have to do it at least once daily and you can still lose information if your last backup isn't recent enough. In this light, you'll have to rely on your web hosting company, so you need to double-check their policy on the backups, since some companies create backups just once per week, that will do no good if something goes wrong with a website which is being used and updated constantly, such as an online store, for instance.
