    I have never done this before, so I figured I better ask first to be sure. I am moving my web hosting and need to know is there anything in particular I need to be aware of when moving the database? Is there an easy to understand online tutorial on doing this?

    First, check if you are using the same control panel in both the old and new providers.
    Most control panels (i.e. cPanel) will let you transfer your site without much problem.

    Yes, just use cpanel backup and restore option. Should work

    If I'm not wrong most web panels have phpMyAdmin installed, just make a backup into a .sql file and upload it at your new web host.
