Blogging can contribute a great deal to your web site. But if you don’t back up your blog and your blog server breaks down, there’s a chance you will lose everything. Even if you only write around 150 words a day, that would be 55,000 words over the year. If your blog broke down in any way, you would have to re-create the whole lot again – a complete book’s worth…!

Thankfully there’s a new service around which automatically backs up your blog every day – and it works with all the main blogging services. At the moment it is in beta form, so accounts are being issued free of charge.

It could be well worth looking at BlogBackupOnline.
