Considering to change to new web hosting company and not know how to transfer your website to the new hosting company?



Once your new hosting account is ready... upload all files and database to their server. Make sure all your database connection is working.
Put your current site in maintenance mode, thus prevent changes made to 'old' server which will be abandoned soon.
Change domain nameserver to point to the new hosting nameserver.
Wait for domain propagation to complete. Test out the new hosting & website.
Close your old hosting account, and ask for prorated refund. Yes you can do this if your contract haven't ends.
Happy website transfering.. :)

depends... you can just copy all the files over FTP to FTP, or however, or sometimes there is a migration utility in your control panel... if you have one.

its in the manage account section there is a box next to the change password for transferring points it ask for user name and points and should have a transfer button.
