Want to export your entire Constant Contact list? Whether you're migrating to a new service or just want a backup, you can grab your entire contact list as a CSV or Excel file pretty quickly.

What's the difference between the two formats? Here's a quick overview.

  • A CSV, or comma separated variables, file is a simple text document. Each of your contacts will be one line in that text document, with each field separated by a comma.
