The right way to Back Up Your Tumblr [Downloads]

Whenever you’re a Tumblr user, you almost certainly noticed the large outage it endured this weekend, and you’re probably having a type of ” what if I’d lost everything” moments. Here’s the right way to back up your Tumblr to avoid wasting yourself from such distress.

We don’t speak about Tumblr a ton around here, but the sheer mass of this week’s outage probably left many people thinking-not only about their Tumblr, but other blogs and social networks within the process. Sometimes things go down, and while often it’s only for a little while and your data isn’t lost, it’s important to be prepared for the worst.

To that end, there’s the Mac app Tumblr Backup, or the older, web-based Backup Jammy . Both keep all your Tumblr data saved in easily viewable HTML format for your hard disk drive.

Tumblr Backup (an app officially from Tumblr) is a straightforward and self-explanatory app: just log in, tell it where it’s essential save your backup, and let it go to work. Note that it doesn’t back up privabe tumbelogs, submissions, notes, feed-imported posts, or audio files from reblogged posts.

Tumblr Backup is a free download for Mac OS X. You may as well backup tumblelogs with the online-based Backup Jammy , and it’s equally easy to take advantage of.

If you’re not a Tumblr user but you’ve still been scared into a backup frenzy after this weekend’s events, you’ll definitely desire to inspect previously mentioned Backupify for backing up your other services.
