With Typepad shutting down on September 30, 2025, every blogger using the platform must act quickly to preserve their content. Once Typepad goes offline, all posts, photos, and archives will be permanently deleted.
The good news? Typepad allows you to export your blog before the shutdown. In this guide, we’ll walk you step by step through the process so you can create a safe backup of your work.
Why Exporting is Important
- Prevent permanent loss of years of posts and images
- Make migration to WordPress, Ghost, or Blogger easier
- Keep a personal offline archive for safekeeping
- Ensure your stories and content live on beyond Typepad
Step-by-Step Guide to Exporting Your Typepad Blog
Step 1: Log in to Typepad
Go to Typepad Login and sign in with your username and password.
Step 2: Go to Blog Settings
- From your dashboard, select the blog you want to export.
- Navigate to Settings.
Step 3: Access the Import/Export Tab
- In the Settings menu, look for Import/Export.
- Click Export.
Step 4: Choose Export Options
Typepad will allow you to export posts and comments in a text-based format.
- Select the desired blog if you have multiple.
- Click the Export button.
Step 5: Download Your File
The system will generate a file containing your posts and comments.
- Save the file securely on your computer.
- Create multiple copies (e.g., external drive, cloud storage) for extra safety.
Step 6: Save Your Images
Important: The export file does not include images.
- Download your image folders manually from Typepad’s file manager.
- Keep them in the same folder as your exported file for easy migration later.
After Exporting: What’s Next?
Once your content is exported, you have two choices:
- Keep the backup only → Safe for archival purposes.
- Migrate to a new platform → WordPress is the most recommended option because it’s modern, flexible, and widely supported.
