There are several reasons why you export content from a blog or a site with the WordPress platform to consider. First note that we are talking about a self-hosted website. This means that you have registered your own domain name and database and website files on your own hosting account paid. This is not the free version of a blog hosted by WordPress.com. You create your own database for self-hosted WordPress.org blog or website. It took me long to realize that, technically, a blog and Web site are essentially the same.

The reasons for the export of such information that you want to make a backup file of your site, or you may find that you have transferred your files from one hosting account to another. Unfortunately, the export of content is not only able to keep. The format of WordPress eXtended RSS or WXR file is called. Also note that if your hosting company has to restore your site, there is usually a premium for it. Some people say they can use free tools for online backup to do.

Consider the fact that you may prefer really considered “clones” of your WordPress site, rather than simply exporting files mentioned in the standard procedure. The overall advantage is speed, and if you WordPress on a regular basis, then you really should do backups regularly anyway for security purposes. Let’s face it, you never know when to break a WordPress site or updates to plugin conflict. You can be unhappy to hacked your site.
