    Hi,

    I'm not to sure if this is the best section for this question but here it goes. I have a site I own, and someone wants to buy it, how do I go about giving them the site and domain? It's using wordpress if that helps?

    well some hosts offer to transfer the sites.

    if you want to do it you own create a database backup and a backup of the data on the webspace the site is using then send this to the guy who bought your site. then you need to transfer the domain to him to tell you how to do it best way I need to know where you host your domain

    Backup all your wordpress file.
    Sent the file to the buyer.
    Push the domain to buyer account.

    It's on wordpress, I have access to his FTP account, do I have to install wordpress to his server? Or can I drop all contents of the backup onto his server? Will it have all the posts I have made? Cheers :)

    You need to make a backup from your MySQL-Database and after that you have to put it on his MySQL-Database & change the config of the .php files, so that it is correct for his MySQL.
