Ok so I am really not a very clever bunny when it comes to this sort of thing, but I need to back up my website.
I have done this before on two of my websites using the BackWPup plugin and I save my backups to Dropbox right?
Now I tried all yesterday and last night to back up my other website in the same way, also to Dropbox and I just got error after error.
I hate fighting with things and I hate it when things don't work.
Are there any really easy ways to back up my website? I do need to do it quite urgently because I want to make lots of changes this weekend and in case I stuff something up I need to be able to revert back to where it is now....

I just need my cPanel details then for future backups! Are you sure you want to delete this post?

A websites files are just that, files. And like files on your own PC, you can back those files up to a new location. Such as a CD/DVD or USB memory stick. Another external or internal drive or even to DropBox or some cloud hosting solution.
So you'll need access to those files before you can back them up. Your web host should provide you access to your hosting account dashboard where you can manage your site from. They may even provide their own back up services as well. But they probably provide Cpanel access at least which gives you access to all your sites files, directories etc and browse through them etc.
You can use Cpanel to create a backup of all your site files. It should give you access to your public_html directory where your site/s are. You can use it to compress your whole sites directory into a zip file or even a tar or rar file you can then download to your own PC. That way you'll always have a hard copy of your site in case the host ever goes down and stops being in business and your site and all its files are gone (does happen).
I presume you're talking about backing up a WP site? And you've used some plugins to back it up from inside WordPress itself? This is also one way of backing up a WP site using some backup plugin. They usually do the same thing and compress everything like your sites theme files, plugins, account details, settings, pages, posts and even your actual sites database etc into an XML file you can then "Import" back into a fresh WP installation using the Import page in WP.
Those plugins that do that are useful but they only back up the main parts of that WP site. But using Cpanel IMHO is the easiest and fastest way to back up your whole site and actually does that, backs up your whole sites files (everything). Which you can download and store on your PC or upload that to DropBox or some cloud hosting solution or something.
Then if you need to restore your site. Just reupload that and extract and overwrite and your site will be restored exactly as is. That will include everything in that directory, your other directories the .htaccess and robots.txt etc. Everything.
You should also backup your database as well! You'll need to use MySQL Manager or phpMyAdmin from Cpanel. A site comes in two parts. The database and the files. Unless it's just a simple HTML site and isn't using any databases.
Hope that helps! Let me know if you have any more q's.
Mike. Hi Lynne. Firstly, don't panic! When you panic you make rash mistakes and it just exacerbates the situation even more. Big words and psychology lesson over. Keep calm and be positive! There are many ways to back up a website! I'll post some of the ways I do it. A websites files are just that, files. And like files on your own PC, you can back those files up to a new location.
