How often does one need a backup? It depends on the intensity of updates. I have a MySQL-backed website that is updated few times a day. I do mysqldump every day and store the backup on the local filesystem. Once a week I copy the backup to another computer. Once in a month I store the backup at the eternal media (CD-RW). I have a Zope-based site, which is updated every few days. I do backup once a week, and once a month copy the backup to a different computer.
