Moving Website Data to Another Hosting Provider

A practical overview of transferring website files, databases and settings.

Website data transfer between hosting providers

A complete transfer usually includes website files, the database, configuration and email settings. Make a current backup before starting.

Transfer the project

  • Copy the files to the new account.
  • Create a database and import the latest data.
  • Update configuration values and check permissions.
  • Test the website before changing DNS.

Verify the result

Open key pages, test forms and confirm that images, email and secure connections work. Keep the previous hosting available until the transfer is complete.
