How to backup website?

[GreenyBeany]

Greetings,
I was wondering if there is any easier way to download backups for my own website (for example in .zip)

I found these instructions, but when I try to download the folder (as it’s said…) an error will appear (cause you can’t download folders…)

1. Connect to your website via FTP .
2. Find the HTDOCS folder you wish to backup.
3. Download the HTDOCS folder to your home computer and keep it in a safe place.

So should I just manually download all files or is there any other way?

Thanks,
-Greeny
