Backup Your Data Online



Online backup is the best, I strongly recommend using online backups. Backing up your data online prevents data loss if your computer is damaged or stolen—or if your data is wiped by malware.
Several sites online offer free online backup plans. The only difference is that for a free plan there are some restrictions. If you don’t want restrictions such as storage space, then you should opt for the premium plan.
Otherwise if you have just little data to backup, a free backup can serve as a complete and permanent backup solution for life!
Below is a list of free online backup sites that are of very good standard;
CrashPlan this site has been praised for its ease of use and setup, speedy response, and its customer service and support.

Bitcasa Infinite Drive also very good and reliable

Mozy gives you complete control over the scheduling of your backups. You can control how much bandwidth your backup uses to speed up or slow down the process.
You could back up your entire hard drive and, in the event of a computer catastrophe, restore your files. This cloud storage provider has since added file syncing to its repertoire, a move that allowed it to remain relevant and competitive in the growing cloud storage space market.

Others include; Backblaze, Carbonite, SpiderOak. 
  
I can only give very much details about Mozy. Lets’ look at setting up Mozy.
Mozy offers free online storage up to 2GB for free and also has premium payments options too.

Setup is simple and after downloading Mozy from mozy.com, you can specify what you want to backup and when. Mozy will automate your backups and let you decide when it backs up (specific times), what causes it to backup (low CPU usage), and how often (one, two, three etc. times a day.)
In conclusion its’ simple to use.
