You still need a backup strategy in case you have issues with your site code or in the worst case scenario your hosting fails.
It’s also very important to understand that most hosting Companies only perform “courtesy” backups – you can’t rely on them. Also what happens if your hosting fails (it happens!) – then what do you do?
