Ready to Move Your WordPress Site Without the Headache?
Moving a standard HTML site from one web host to another used to be as simple as copying and pasting your files. Easy, right? But when it comes to WordPress, things can feel a bit more complicated.
That’s because WordPress isn’t just a bunch of files. It’s a script that stores your website’s content (like pages and posts) in a database. So when you move your WordPress site, you’re not just moving files – you’re also moving the database. And here’s the kicker: even after moving both, your site still won’t work until you connect the script to the database correctly.
Sound daunting? Don’t worry – I’ve got you covered.
In this course, I’ll walk you through the entire process, step by step. Whether you prefer a hands-on manual method or an automated way to make it all a little easier, I’ll show you both. You’ll get to look over my shoulder as I move real sites that I own. You can follow along and repeat the steps on your own site – it’s like having a personal guide by your side.
And the best part? Apart from your hosting and WordPress site, everything else you need is completely free.
