A backup of a site is a copy of its content, which is kept on some other web server and can be restored if something happens. This option is very efficient, considering that you can never know if a script update will not go wrong or if you won't erase something by accident - a file, a folder, a database entry, and so on. If your site is backed up, it can be restored the way it was prior to when the problem appeared, so there shall not be any damage, or at least it will be minimal, dependant upon the specific situation. Keeping backups on your laptop or computer isn't very feasible, due to the fact that you would have to do it at least once each day and you may still lose info if your last backup isn't recent enough. In this light, you will need to rely on your website hosting company, so you must double-check their policy on the backups, because some providers create backups just once each week, which will do no good if a problem occurs with a site that is being used and updated at all times, like an online store, for example.
