In this tutorial I'll show you how to manually migrate your WordPress website from one host to another. There are a plethora of duplicator, migration and cloning tools and plugins out there, but often they timeout, fail or don't work between hosts.
*** Update May 2024 - this method still works like a charm today! ***
I've used many a cloning tool in my day only to have the migration timeout, take the site down and leave me in a complete panic. It's for this reason that knowing how to do it manually is ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL. And luckily, it's not rocket science. With a basic understanding of what's going on behind the scenes and the most important files you need to worry about, you can do it often just as fast as it would take a migration tool.
