    If you have whm root access you can transfer a site in a few seconds with the server IP, account name and password. If you don't have it, then ask your host to do it for you. Otherwise your going to have to download all the files and databases and re-upload :/

    access on my own host, but not for the other host.
    Will this still work?
    In my whm panel now, see nothing that helps me to transfer anything.

    If you have cpanel on both server you could probably ask your new host to help you transfer it, just give him your old server's username and password and they can move it immediately.

    If you have cpanel on both host, I can help you, if you're still looking.

    You don't need anything other than cPanel on the other host. In WHM on the left sidebar about halfway down under "Transfers" find "Copy account from another server with account password" Simply put in that servers IP, account name, and password and WHAMMO! in about 10 seconds you'll have that account setup with all the files on the new server.
