Backup your blog ! (Including comments and widget)

Backup your blog entirely. Normally people would do this when they want to move their blog to another blog hosting software. Eg: WordPress, Movable Type, Typepad etc..

One thing to take note:

This option probably will be able to save your widgets. Although it is not recommended as some of the widgets might get corrupted in the process. Unless you are planning to use the same URL (Which I doubt it..) it is not wise to do so. So you have two choices:
  • Copy widget HTML and paste them to a text editor (Tutorial posted soon) OR
  • Re-installing them to your blogging software (Recommended if you are migrating to another blog host)
Now that we are done, let's get started!




First of , Go to Settings => Others, find blog tools and click on export blog, then this window will pop up.

Now click Download Blog and all of your comments and post will be saved in a format called . XML (Extensible Markup Language).

You can always re-upload this anytime to blogger if something really big and irreversible thing happened and you will need to delete your blog and re-add another one. Not necessary irreversible but perhaps you don't understand HTML good enough to resolve it. Or maybe you will want to migrate it to WordPress. WordPress supports blogger's .XML migration. All your comments, post and feed should appear exactly as it is. (As for the feed it only applies to WordPress only)

This is the easiest method of doing so. However, if cannot anticipate when your blog will go corrupt or you forgot to backup and some big disaster happens, you can always count on third party services to help you deal with that! This is normally done for precaution purposes.

Blog Backup Online:


What Blog Backup online does is that it backups your blog daily and save them to a storage space, I don't the space (or memory) limitation should be a problem as they offer enough memory to store a blog, even a full time blogger can count on their free service.
