How often do you back up your site?

While it would, this is the backup schedule we do:
Daily: Incremental - only changed files are backed up to a tape and stored locally.
Weekly: Full - all files for the week are backed up to a tape and transported offsite.

Tapes are then rotated from there and stored securely (fire proof box under lock and key or what have you.)
 
Wouldn't daily cover the weekly and monthly?

Yes, be logical here though, I back-up daily, but I keep a back-up of every day of the week, a weekly (sunday) back-up and a back up of the 1st day of the month. This covers if someone changed their site 15 days ago, and now they wanna go back I have a monthly back-up they can use.
 
12:01 am, every day:

Every HDD is imaged, encrypted, and sent to Atlanta (main DC location is Dallas, TX).

The encryption is because we deliver the backup files to Atlanta via http and/or ftp protocol, and don't want any security breaches which would give someone an entire image of one of our drives.
