For those hosting sites, I'm going to state the obvious.
It's absolutely critical to have full off-site backups of your sites!
This can be another VPS or your local workstation, some other storage for your full site backups rather than the actual web site host/server.
Make this a routine, set reminders, or just script it if you can.
Go backup up your site and download it locally now, don't wait!
You can never have too many backups.
While you're at it, take a backup and perform a full restore to make sure it works. What good is a backup if you can't restore it.
