Generally, there are two main reasons for that behavior:

  • Quantity of data you're backing up
  • Reliability and speed of your wifi network.

How did you perform your attempt to backup? Using iCloud or using iTunes on a computer?

Should be the former, are you sure you have enough storage space on iCloud?
