    So I'm trying to transfer WordPress blog from one hosting service to another.

    I've managed to get most of it working on the new hosting service but I have one problem. Links to Archive articles don't work.

    Here is the link: http://74.52.105.98/~lukasz4k/blog/

    Any help/suggestions on how to fix it are appreciated.

    Thanks!

    Is it possible that the DNS has not resolved yet? Did you change it yet or did you just do it today for instance?

    The other thing I would check if the DNS has been changed for some time now is if you have brought over all the files. If the DNS is not the problem. go back to your old account and compare the files on the new acct to make sure everything got uploaded.

    Did you upload the .htaccess file?

    If the above suggestions still don't solve the problem, your best bet is probably to do the whole process again. A detailed tutorial on transferring Wordpress from your old host to the new can be found here (click!).
