You can export a copy of your site, by going Tools -> Export, nothing will happen, you are just downloading all your content to have in a file on your computer.
With importing, I believe that your current site and the one you are importing will ‘merge’, so nothing is ‘wiped out’ in the process.
Are you looking to create a new blog? Or you just want a backup of your blog?

Thanks for the support. I had a self hosted wordpress blog and recently it was hacked. I was in no position to recover from the old website. Now that i had data from 2008-2011 from blogger i could import into wordpress. I want to create a replica of this blog so that when in future even if my site gets attacked, i can restore from this. Thats the idea
