1. Log into your blogger dashboard.Click on the image with the black file. A drop down menu will appear.
2. From the menu Select SETTINGS.
3. In setting select OTHER
4. Move to the top of the page where you will see 3 options: IMPORT BLOG, EXPORT BLOG, DELETE BLOG.
5. Select EXPORT BLOG, when you do this a dialogue box will appear that will give you option to down load blog. Click on it.
6. Down load this file it will be in xml format . SAVE this file in a folder created for your blog back up on your computer.
7. Make sure you give the file a recognisable name so that if you need to restore your blog in any instance you can find it easily.Also make sure that you keep this back up folder in two places so that you always have a copy if your computer crashes.
Make sure you back up your blog at least once a week.

This is really good, I didn't realise how simple it was. Thanks for this because backing up gives you piece of mind that all your content is secure.
