  What is the reason you want to take the backups? WordPress.com will take care of backup so we don’t have to worry losing our blog posts.

  If you have a different reason, please check some backup options here: http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2007/10/27/disaster-planning-backups-for-bloggers/

  Export only creates an XML file containing your posts and comments for you to save or import into another WordPress blog. So just exporting does not empty your blog.

  Please note that nobody other than you can pull the backup and upload it to your site.

  this isn’t a terms of service issue. I just need someone, anyone at the WordPress company to restore my blog via backup. the terms of service page is all the legal disclaimers ?????

  In my case, Export emptied my blog. I wanted to create a backup site, but now everything is gone and NO ONE IS HELPING ME TO GET MY SITE BACK. I am shouting because it is a simple request and I cannot reach the right people, and IT’S FRUSTRATING!!!!

  If you go to my page, ALL OF MY POSTINGS FOR THE LAST 5 MONTHS ARE GONE. How do I get this back??? I tried importing and IT DOESN’T WORK!!!!
