Export or import your blog

Imports and exports are only for posts and comments. If you want to save a copy of your template, click the Backup/Restore button on the Template tab.

You can export a copy of your blog to your computer and import the posts and comments into a different Blogger blog.

4. Click Export Blog.
5. Click Download blog.

Your blog will be saved as a .xml file. Don’t worry, the blog is still in your dashboard and on Blogger.com.
