    I am hosting my Wordpress blog in Host A.

    I want to transfer all Content, Feedback and Comments of this Blog to Host B.

    I used cPanel > MySQL > phpMyAdmin to Save 3 Database already into Notepad.

    How do I Transfer / Upload these 3 Database into the Same Domain but to a different host, please?:)

    If you can run a command prompt vis ssh or telnet on you new host, i would advise uploading the database via ftp then using the following command to install the database:

    mysql -u <username> -p<password> <databasename> < <fileneame>

    Without the <>

    If it's not too late, in WP:
    Host A:
    Manage - Export

    Host B:
    Manage - Import

    Should be simpler

    Another "if it's not too late" suggestion:

    Why not just create a cPanel backup of the site/db, and have your new host migrate your entire site over?
