Why And How to Take Backup of Feedburner Mailing list

If I have to give you one tip for getting success in your life; “Work smarter rather than harder“.  As a person we all work harder and we work up to the our limit to do something, but to maximise your output, you keep turning your hard work into smart work. For example, you can still stick to same method of writing un-targeted posts to make money from AdSense or you can use this simple trick to pick Keywords which can generate more than $50 per click.  Such changes doesn’t happen over night, and while working hard you will keep discovering new tricks which will automatically turn your working style towards smart work.

One of the biggest mistake which we often make is not preparing ourselves for rainy days. 2 days back one of shouter called me to share his problem with a private VPS server crashed and how he lost his year old hard-work by not taking the backup outside the server. The intelligent kid was smart enough to take the backup on the same VPS server, but after the server crash he also lost the access to the backup. Believe me or not, this actually hurts more than you can imagine. Imagine yourself losing every inch of your hard-work with a blink of your eye. Do you really want to be in that kind of state ever in your life?

Yes, today article is all about backing up, and in particular backing up your feed burner Email list. Like me, If you are also using Aweber to manage your Email list, I will share tip for that in another article.

The reason for selecting feed burner as a topic here is because I’m skeptic about the future of Feedburner. Google has already showed many signs, which made me and other experts to think they might shut down feed burner in future.  I’m sure they will give ample amount of time (3-5 months) to backup your data or to import it to other Email marketing tool, but it’s advisable to keep taking timely backup of your feed burner Email list. Usually I have set the backup date as end of month for most of my services, and store them on my Amazon server. Another reason is; your feed burner account is linked with your Gmail account and if somehow you lose your Google account, boom! you will also lose your priceless email list.

 So without getting more detail into importance of backing up, lets directly learn how you can backup your Email list in less than 5 minutes.
