    A quick search on the site shows that there are a number of different plugins that all accomplish the same task, namely backup a wordpress blog.

    Is there one backup plugin which is considered to be better then the others and preferred by most bloggers?

    Why do you need a plugin?

    Go to Manage, then Export in admin panel/

    Database BackUp and BackUpWordPress are the two commonly used plugin. Also, you can learn manual backup which I think is quite easy as well.

    I think I'm going to go with the one that is already built into Wordpress.

    If it does a full backup, why go elsewhere I guess...this way I know I'm using a product that is fully supported by Wordpress.

    now you're talking. Don't make WordPress more complicated than it has to be.

    Good luck with your blog:)
