  Hi there,

  You can use the Export tool to backup all of your content or move your content to a new WordPress site.

  You can refer here ,

  Hope this helps!!

  Thanks!!

  Exported docs are copies not originals.

  Hi,

  Exporting your blog will not delete it, if you wish to do so after you have exported it and are sure it’s all up and running again in your new location, you can either chose to make your WordPress.com blog hidden, or manually delete your posts. Just don’t delete anything until you are sure you have it exported and have checked it’s all there when you import it to its new location!
