I dont trust all exchange sites wallets in keeping my bitcoins even though they say that they are secured,because i already experience hacking issues on some exchange sites so i dont trust all site now,i always use store my bitcoins on paper wallets
using third party wallet service would never make you as secure as when you used your own paper wallet, that's the most secure wallet i would recommend yeah a paper wallet, it's free from hacking as there's no internet connection. a hacking happened due there's a constant connection and someone get the information through that connection. a traditional way far better i mean paper wallet sounds like a traditional way to hide your cash.

My wallet's name is Coins.ph. That is the wallet that is used by many Filipinos because of its exclusiveness and I'm using coins and easy to use because there are banks near our place and coins have contact on those banks and its easy to withdraw money that I'm earning here. In coins.ph there were no fees in withdrawing, no fees in giving money to someone, but the wallet they own should be coins also or else it would be consider as an external wallet so there would be a fee. I believe on other wallets they have fees in withdrawing so I trusts coins.
I have all my coins in on an online trading site (paxful) (low volume)
I plan on making a large investment very soon, and want to safely store all of my coins
I.E I basically want to drop a couple thousand, and keep them in the safest possible way, where I can revisit them in 5-10 years or so and reap the benefits, or cry about the loss.
What is the best way to do this, and what's the best way of ensuring a backup?
How do you currently store your coins

To my knowledge,Electrum wallet is the best wallet to store bitcoins safely.We could set transaction fee manually.I have been using it for the past three years.No problem found yet. I plan on making a large investment very soon, and want to safely store all of my coins

currently using blockchain.info wallet, since I don't trade with huge amounts of bitcoin and I'm keeping it safe as much as I can and also, as soon as I recieve the bitcoin, I trade it asap for fiat so I barely have anything on my wallet right now. 
I keep my bitcoin in online wallet because I know that my bitcoin is safe and secure. If you have an online wallet you can use it to pay bills and buy the things in the online market using your bitcoin in your wallet. Having online wallet is nice to all bitcoin users because they can deposit their bitcoin easily.I hope that one day when you wake up, you will see all of your bitcoin disappear and you will send a thousand support ticket to the website and you will still receive nothing from them. Then, you will regret for using online wallet because they are all deceivers and robbers
Is it if I keep it on blockchain.info still unsafe?
Are sites such as online wallets, exchanges etc that have been famous and most popular that has stood for a long time also has trust and positive feedback can still be hacked which means it is not safe for us to save bitcoin there?
Can you give a safe wallet recommendation to use, whether it is an online wallet or a good offline wallet to use.
Web wallets (without having the private key) could be safe for the amount you can afford to lose any time without causing problems to yourself.
Wallets on PC or laptop (having the private key) could be good for bigger amounts you cannot afford to lose easily.
All the other coins should be kept in safe place like paper wallet, offline wallet on PC without internet access, or in hardware wallets like Trezor or similars. The price of the hardware wallets determines that you need to have a decent amount of bits if you want to buy a hardware wallet. It's all about handling risk, you can decide your way depending on your own need.
I keep my bitcoins on a offline wallet which I keep just to store, otherwise I have my bitcoins on localbitcoins(low volume) in case i'm outside and need some money in my bank account. It works very well for me and I'm very happy with it as of now.
As of now Im also hoarding my bitcoin in an offline wallet my cousin reffered to me, like what he is using right now. Waiting for the price to rise up and im converting it to my country's currency and hoard haha. It is very handy and convenient for me as a student. Im very contented with it right now. currently using blockchain.info wallet, since I don't trade with huge amounts of bitcoin and I'm keeping it safe as much as I can and also, as soon as I recieve the bitcoin, I trade it asap for fiat so I barely have anything on my wallet right now.

I keep bitcoin in some local and international wallet exchanger. I use both wallets because I focus on trading, and saving in local wallet exchanger makes it easy for me to withdraw cash
Well, if you considering to store bitcoins for the long term then maintaining a cold storage is recommended. Keeping all the funds on the exchange or web wallet is not a wise idea as we have experienced the hacking incident in the past. We can secure our account using advance features like 2fa but we simply can't do anything about the site's database security. Using web wallets or exchanges for regular transaction is a convinient though.

I would suggest you to use Electrum wallet which im using for past two years.Its safe and secure to store bitcoins in it.A seed is generated during registration for password which could be used for recovering the account in future.

I have no problems storing it in exchanges, since it's pocket change comparing to others.
So yes, I usually daytrade at polo, recently moved to kraken.
For other payments I use blockchain.info in a clean and secure VM box on linux.

I also do this. I keep it in an offline wallet because i think it is more secured. And i do not store all of my money in bitcoin, only a certain partition is my requirement. And pf course I need physical money for my everyday needs. What you are doing is highly recommended especially for those who are getting serious in btc.

In online storage of coin? For me it not good to keep coin in online your security is not safe it is better to put your coin in bank. It's better to invest your coin in bank and it is safe and for five to ten years investing coin in the bank it is sure that you earn a return of investment (ROI) for long term of investment within this period of time.
