A backup of a website is a copy of its content, which is kept on some other hosting server and may be restored if something happens. This function is very effective, given that you can't know if a script update will not crash or if you won't delete something unintentionally - a file, a folder, a database entry, and so on. When your site is backed up, it can be restored the way it was until the problem appeared, so there shall not be any damage, or at least it will be small, depending on the particular scenario. Keeping backups on your laptop or computer is not very feasible, simply because you would need to do it at least once daily and you can still lose information if your last backup is not recent enough. In this light, you will need to rely on your hosting company, so you have to double-check their policy on the backups, due to the fact that some companies generate backups once a week, which will do no good if something wrong happens with a site that's being used and updated constantly, like an online store, for instance.
