It's Friday - Blogger BackUp Day

A simple Google search will show you how many people using Blogger have lost their blog posts, comments, templates and/or widgets.
Usually blogs are blocked by Blogger if any inappropriate/illegal content is found in the blogs, but again you can see that many Bloggers aren't aware of this and they read the Blogger TOS only when their blogs get banned and they completely lose the access/control over their blogs, and so they cannot even correct or remove the inappropriate content from their blogs.

While it is important to read and follow Blogger TOS and not to spam their service, but at the same time you must take precautions and regular backups to avoid any accidental deletion of your blog.
So from now onwards, on every last Friday of the month a post will be published on BloggerStop to remind all the readers (including me) to take backup and store files safely on your PC.

1. Tutorial for blog posts and comments backup.

2. Tutorial for template and widgets backup (read the first 6 steps of the tutorial).
