Sometimes you can backup your site using your hosting control panel. The best solution for me is to use SSH and a terminal client like putty to connect. Then I zip or tar the site using commands like:
zip -r filename.zip foldername

Then I dump the database with mysqldump.
Examples:

Another option is to use your control panel's File Manger. The good ones (like with latest cPanel) have a Compress/Archive option.

Another fast way backing up files using cpanel can be seen here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ypfX0rDh2YI

Then use mysqldump for the data base.

Cheers
