Backup Your WordPress Blogs!
Hey there, Aaron here.
Just wanted to enlighten you with something unforeseen that happened to one of my ‘money-getting’ blogs last night.
I was trying to access the blog and I received an “Internal Server Error” which means my blog was inaccessible. That was ‘odd’…I’ve never experienced this before!
However, I checked out the WordPress forums and surprisingly I discovered many others using WordPress have been facing similar issues lately.
Hey! I thought WordPress is supposed to back up our blogs, right? Yea right…
CAUTION: WordPress DOES NOT automatically backup blogs!
You need to do it yourself, manually (the first time for each blog) then use automated backups to do it perhaps once a week automatically.
So, you see, even a so called expert blog marketer like myself made a silly avoidable mistake! Hahaha.. 
So when I knew this was the problem, I scrambled to look for a solution and I discovered several paid and FREE options. Wanna guess which one I chose?! Of course the free version. And this plugin was also very easy to install and configure.
The plugin you want to install is WP DB Backup
The installation is the same way as how you install a plugin (from within your wp-admin panel) but for your convenience, I found a video in YouTube which shows you how to install this plugin.

This is important fellas! Backup your blogs or risk loosing everything! I’m you don’t want that to happen to you now, do ya?!
