How do I backing up our web site content?

I’m sure WA has set their own backup in case something goes wrong. Anyway, you can use the BackWpup plugin to backup your website content hourly, daily, weekly or monthly. Here’s the tutorial for that. Backup Wordpress To DropBox Tutorial As for your last question, did you mean saved and haven’t been published or saved and have been published?
Thanks for the link Juneyo.
In my last mesage I mean content and blog updaes that hass been 'saved and have been published?'
You’re welcome. Once it has been published, it’s yours forever even if it’s only been saved on WA.

I'm not sure if I like the WordPress theme or appearance of my website. Can I just change it for another theme and does it automatically format the pages if I do?
Also, as
I keep a site rubix site just for testing themes and plugins etc. So whenever I need to test a new theme or plug etc I try it all out on this test site before uploading to my main site or clients site that I'm working on.
I find this saves me a lot of drama if something screws up and so far, I've not had any issues.
Hi. Yes, you can change your theme and try out different ones until you are happy with one. You will usually lose any affiliate banners you may have in your sidebar, and you would have to redo those. Other than that, everything just moves into the new theme and you can decide if you like it or not.

Well, that's me just coming up to 4 weeks as Premium Member as new mwmber and I've started to run out of ideas and quality content in my niche, which was in 'Pendant Watches fo
As far as being experts, no one really is. Things change too much. So you're stuck with research. But.....I switched to pen and paper for research. I can jot notes real fast, then write my post. I stay more focused that way too, instead of jumping back and forth between tabs.
Oh what's your domain name? You can change your title. That's your problem. Too narrow. It's why your running out of ideas.
Hi Geoff, my site is http://pendantwatchforher.com
There is some content behind Pendant Watches in terms of history and fashion but I'm struggling to add good content. However, there's tonnes of content for watches in general. I'd be pleased to get your comments on the site layout and content.
I looked at your site. It looks good. The one thing that stood out was several of your images aren't centered. Now I'm on my smartphone so idk how it looks from desktop. On one hand, you really locked yourself in with that domain name. On the other hand, think about who your target audience is. I'd guess (without doing any research) that you have/or will have a lot of women and MEN. So why not branch off into men's watches? You know, I go to look for a watch for my wife, then I see a suggestion and link to a men's watch page. Hmmmm I think, and click over. Another though I had was why not branch off into mobile time apps. You could probably find lots to do reviews on.
Yes, I recognize this challenge.
When you feel you have great ideas for a new website, please go for it!
Don't hold yourself back.
Go with the flow...

I don't know if anyone can really answer that for you. Here's my take - my initial thought was that it would be easier to get creative and come up with a new spin on your current site. My next thought was that easier isn't necessarily better. If I place myself in your situation, I have one simple question. Am I really passionate about this niche? Simple huh? But not always easy to answer. Look at your whole niche.If you love it, you just have to get a new perspective. People can help with that.
Yea, I know what you mean Geoff. I think the problem I've got is that I'm passionate about my niche but I don't think I have enough knowledge to continually produce quality content without spending a whole load of time researching, which I don't have a lot of at present, each time I add to my blog roll.
I'm also not sure if Ladies Pendant Watches is too narrow a niche.
Hi John :)
I think if you feel your current niche can produce, perhaps you could continue to add content, etc., while you are looking into building upon another niche. It really depends upon how you see your progress currently, if you think you have come to a point of being able to construct things better than you have, then maybe looking into another niche building it from scratch will present more opportunity for you.
Just thinking out loud John...I understand what you are thinking as I have often felt similar about my own site. For now I decided to redo
what I can, add more content, and focus on driving traffic to that updated content. At some point I am going to narrow my focus and better apply what I am learning. I do wish you the best!

I want my homepage to be a blog roll versus being a static page. The reason for this is that I would like when I add a new post to my website, it will automatically show a snip
I'm confused about what a static page and a 'blog roll' is?
