NOTE: These are instructions for Beta (XML) Blogger Blogs

We are going to explain how to Back up your entire Blog Content, including Posts, Comments and Widgets.

Ok, there are a few methods to do this. There are more that few, but they are kind of different. Let's see the most practical ones first.

1. BACK UP WITH BLOGGER

The easiest possible way.... Go to:
SETTINGS ► BASIC ► beside BLOG TOOLS, click on the Export Blog, and once more on EXPORT BLOG button.
Choose the location where you want to save the file, and click Save. And that's it!

Your Blog (content + posts) is save as .xml document. Quite small, too. You will not be able to see it, or read it on externally, but you can always upload it through Blogger.
This is also suitable for exporting certain posts to another Blog, but we'll cover that in some other tut...

You Blog is saved to a hard drive (your computer), and if anything happens, you can always bring it back.

2. BACK UP ONLINE USING "BLOGBACKUPONLINE"

Yet another easy method. You just have to visit BlogBackUpOnline, open an account, register your blog, and it will be backed up daily. They offer enough memory (space) to store your Blog. Even for a Full time blogger :)



3. BACK UP YOUR BLOG USING SCRAPBOOK FIREFOX EXTENSION

For the users of Firefox Browser (if you're not, just download it here) there's a way to Back up your Blog using Scrapbook extension. You can download Scrapbook here. Install it, restart Firefox browser.
For the detailed instructions download this Pdf Document.


There are some other alternatives, (like downloading Complete Web Pages manually), but I found these the most appropriate and practical...Good luck with everything.
