Back Up Your Blog

In Blogger, click the "Settings" tab, click the "Basic" sub-tab underneath it, then click the "Export Your Blog" link and follow the onscreen instructions to download your blog. In WordPress, click the "Export" link from the "Tools" widget in the admin dashboard and follow the onscreen directions to download the blog's contents.

• 4). Locate the downloaded blog backup file on the hard drive in the Dropbox window.
  
  
• 5). Click on the file in the right pane of the Dropbox dialog window. While holding the mouse button down, drag the file to the Dropbox folder on the left pane, then release the mouse button. This moves the backup to Dropbox.
