  Hi! I’m using backup to Dropbox and my first backup took up just over 1gb of my available 2gb. Is this a normal size? I’ve tried 5-6 different backup plugins and none of them worked, usually because of size. My website is fairly new and I can’t see why I would have so much data.

  Any insight into why its so large? Any recommendations for a method of backing up? Will I run into the same issues if I pay for BlogVault or BackupBuddy?

  Note: I had four themes downloaded but not in use. I have just deleted all themes except the one I’m using (Able). Would this be the cause?
