I would like to learn how to move my 2 proxy sites to my new hosting co, as in the past i have always paid someone else to do it for me, so could someone give me a detailed step by step guide on how to transfer my 2 proxies, the sites don t have databasis, which i understands makes things easier but i am a noobie when it comes to things like this as unless someone can show me i will never know, and im willing to learn new things, also i might save myself some money
first you will want to transfer the Files.(since there are no databases). Basically, copy the files from the current to the new host. and setup anything you need like emails. then you change the DNS so, the domain redirects to the new hosting company. i think this will be ok? or do you need a more details one?
You could take a capnel backup and install it on your new server. http://www.bonsairack.com/tutorials/cpanel.php Look for Create a backup. Youll have a video tutorial.
The best situation would be creating a full tar.gz backup of your site and having your host restore it as a "whole".
at this point , if you want to learn, you should into a search feature on google. I heard you can find alot of things there.

FTP to your current host. Download all the desired files from public_html which are required for your proxy website to run. Now connect to the new host through ftp, upload all the files in public_html folder. Change the nameservers so that your domain points the new host. Its done
