Bluehost's cPanel doesn't have an automatic backup.
What I do instead is run a cron job on my local (home) computer (I run linux) that rsyncs everything in my account.
A simple rsync command that could do the trick:
rsync -a username@example.com:/home/username/ /backups/bluehost/
You'll need SSH at Bluehost, and have passwordless (public/private key) logins set up to be able to do this type of backup.
I've never been able to find a Windows rsync gui that could make backups of remote sites to the local disk.
You can run rsync on mac, windows, and linux. It takes a bit more doing to get working on windows.
There are plenty of detailed tutorials out there that show how to make backups with rsync.

I have a cron job setup on my hosting that creates a backup copy of the databases and then emails that to me - so when I next access my emails the backup gets moved from the server to my computer.

Same here :)..
Here is the syntax I use:
mysqldump -ce --user=<username>_<mysqluser> --password=<the_mysqluser's_password> <username>_<dbname> | mail <addy_i_only_use_for_backups>@mydomain.org
Without the <>'s of course.

Hi all....
Iīm with a single problem...
One o my databases (MYSQL) have been backed-up with a cron command until last 2 years, I think.
Well, last day I created a view in one of them, and an error on cron was generated via e-mail to me.
This is the command:
mysqldump --user=XXmy-userXX --password=XXmy-passXX --opt XXMY-DBXX > /home/XXdirXX/file.sql
Here is the error:
mysqldump: Couldn't execute 'show create table `w_titulos_valores`': SHOW VIEW command denied to user 'XXmy-userXX'@'localhost' for table 'w_titulos_valores' (1142)
In time: the user have all privileges possible in the CPanel, for database users.
Investigating, I tried to run this command in the ssh, to see more details, and
saw one thing.....
I canīt grant the privilege SHOW VIEW in my databases to any user.
This instigating me.... why have a database if I canīt use views on it?
Can anyone help?
Tks!

Have you tried using the phpMyAdmin in the cPanel?

Yes, I did it.... When I try to export the entire database using phpmyadmin, nothing happens.....
When I try to backup the database in the CPanel backup function , evety thing work right, all my tables and the views are in the backup....
Well, as I said.... I think this is a database privilege mismatch....

After a ticket request, I was informed the permissions are already on the CPanel. Well, the SHOW VIEW doesnīt there.
Tks for attention.... and waiting....
