2. Click on your hosting space.

3. Select Scheduled Tasks from the list on the left.

4. Click Add Scheduled Task.

5. Enter a name for the task and change Task Type to Backup Database. This will change the page to allow relevant information to be entered, as exampled below. You must know the name of the database you are backing up and the type of server it is running on. For most people this will be SQL Server 2008, but check database pages to be sure.
