First, of course, you  have to decide what actually needs to
be in your backup (I presume that's the goal). You don't want,
for example, /dev or /proc in there.

Second, you just asked a question which has no really good answer.
So, you'll get a lot of answers, no one of which is "the best
way".

YMMV
