Don't rely solely on any one back up method. Keep multiple back ups of anything you would hate to lose. The gallery can be one of them, but sites do go down and EA may one day decide to cull the gallery.
Have at least one back up that's not on your computer and not permanently attached to your computer. This is to prevent things like theft or bad viruses from making you start over from square one with regards to your saves and your CC/mods. The latter will be more important as Sims 4 gets older and CC and mod sites start going down for good.
This is very good advice! I hadn't thought about them culling the gallery for older sims. I'm going to be downloading all of mine and saving the files on a flash drive then! Thanks so much for this great post filled with even better advice!
