    One possible solution (in bash).

    BACKUP_SERVER_PATH=remote_user@remote_server:/remote/backup/path/
    SITE_ROOT=/path/to/your/site/
    
    cd "$SITE_ROOT"
    now=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M)
    tar -cvzf /tmp/yoursite.$now.tar.gz .
    scp /tmp/yoursite.$now.tar.gz "$BACKUP_SERVER_PATH"
    

    Some extra stuff to take into account for permission (read access to docroot) and ssh access to the remote server (for scp).

    Note that there are really many ways to do this. Another one, if you don’t mind storing an uncompressed version of your site is to use rsync.
