One of the common support requests we receive relates to lost articles. While we do our best to make sure our system works as efficiently as possible, there are bound to be slip ups - your session logs out, your computer restarts, or you accidentally navigated away from the page.
I’d like to suggest that you write your articles in a text editor, save them, and only then post them to ArticlesBase. If you have a lot of formatting in your article, go ahead and copy the HTML into a text editor before you save your article, just in case.
Let me reiterate: Always save a local copy of your article on your hard drive.
The first few times that you save your articles, it will be a bit of a bother, but soon enough it will become an involuntary action like CTRL-S.
If you go back and edit your article at any point, copy and paste the edited version and save it, too. It’s 30 seconds of work that can save you hours of frustration.
I have found it very valuable to save articles before submiting them to article directories then when they get old you can always archive them on your own website or blog. I usually use word with my articles.
