Can I transfer a wordpress script to another host ?

Hello friends,
I am in problem now. I want to change my host but the problem is that I have all my sites with wordpess blogs script. so I dont know if i can transfer all my files as it is to another host because I think there is risk to lost the database installation. I need your help , please let me know how this is possible to transfer a site with wordpess files to another hosting.
thanks

 

it is very simple procedure.first export individual database from phpmyadmin,then copy all the files to the new host then create new databases on your new host,then import the databases to the respective sites.

Make sure you change the names/user/pass of the databases in your wp-config.php file(if you have changed the database names)

 

Install a fresh copy of WordPress on your new web host, then export your previous database file as a .zip or .sql file via PHPMyAdmin, then import it to the new database on the new web host. And you are done! Just make sure wp-config.php details are pointing to the database on the new host.

 

1.) Ask your new host to transfer your site.

or

2.) Backup the site using cpanel and be sure to backup ALL the site contents including the database. Then, download the backup on your PC. Extract the downloaded backup file and look for your site content. Upload all the file to your new site using FTP. Connect to your new host cpanel. Upload your sql database. Modify the wp-config.php accordingly. That's it.

 

thank you very much for your valuable comments , these are very much helpful for me.

 

Yes you can, and if you had hostgator it would be an even easier process as it will go through much quicker.

They usually do it for you. If not, then do it the old fashioned way with phpmyadmin and bigdump - http://www.ozerov.de/bigdump.php
