  • Hello,

    We apologize for the issue you are facing. Unfortunately, the context provided does not include specific instructions on migrating a website from one hosting provider to another. However, I recommend that you follow these general steps to ensure a smooth migration without data loss:

    1. Backup Your Website: Before starting the migration, create a complete backup of your website files and database. You can use plugins like UpdraftPlus or BackupBuddy for WordPress sites.

    2. Choose Your New Hosting Provider: Select a reliable hosting provider that meets your website’s needs.

    3. Transfer Files: Use an FTP client (like FileZilla) to download your website files from the current host and upload them to the new host.

    4. Export Database: Use phpMyAdmin to export your database from the old host and import it into the new host’s database.

    5. Update Configuration Files: Update your configuration files (like wp-config.php for WordPress) with the new database details.

    6. Test Your Website: Before changing the DNS settings, test your website on the new host using a temporary URL or IP address.

    7. Change DNS Settings: Once everything is working correctly, update your domain’s DNS settings to point to the new hosting provider.

    8. Monitor for Issues: After migration, monitor your website for any issues and ensure everything is functioning as expected.
