Why are my posts missing when I tranfer files to new hosting?

    I am switching hosting accounts, and I am using Filezilla.
    I have downloaded the Wordpress file for each site from my old hosting, and uploaded it to the new host, but all the text (pages & posts that I've written) is not there.
    How can I find it?

    Where is it stored? Why can't I find it in my Wordpress file, not under WP_CONTENT although the images are there? Why isn't it appearing ? Is this a common problem?

    Please help... Thank you

    it stored in database, not files..., you should migrate your wordpress databases too...

    you should transfer your files on your WP database and update you cpanel.
