Ok, I'm quite new to this server administration stuff. I have set up an ec2 instance running my website. I'm running everything on a single machine – node.js & postgres. What is the best way to backup my postgres db?

One of the easiest and recommended ways is to use pg_dump. It makes consistent backups even if the database is being used concurrently.
Script pg_dump to offload dumps to S3 bucket. Setup the script to be run using crontab on a hourly basis.
