There are times when we need to move our website/blog from one host to another for many reasons. It could be downtime issue/overcharging for hosting after first year, hosting, issues and many more.


It really becomes pain in ass for the guys who are not very good at technical issues especially handing with the database and cPanel. It really becomes a tough situation and for that challenge you need to learn today how easily and quickly you can move/migrate your website/blog from one host to another without knowing any technical aspects.


It is all about a simple WordPress plugin called, "All in one wp migration". Okay, let's see how to do that so adequately.


Let's begin adding the plugin first.


Login to your WordPress admin section. Ex: www.yourwebsite.com/wp-admin


On the left below you will find plugin section, click on that then click add new.

Type on the right side search section with, "All in one wp migration" hit enters.


Click "install now", it will not take more than few seconds to install it. Then click on activate. Now your plugin has been activated and ready to work.


Now on the left side section, look under the tolls there is our "All in one wp migration" plugin. Click on it and you would see three options are there.

It will give you a brand new downloading window. A pop-up window with fine size and fine into it will appear. Click on download and it shortly starts the download. You can save it on your desired location. Once saved.


Change the Nameservers for your domain from the domain provider.


Install WordPress to the new host after adding the domain name.


Now login again to your new WordPress site and install the "All in one wp migration" here again that you already have learn above.


Now, click on the "All in one wp migration" under the tools menu in the left side bar.

Soon this process will be completed automatically as well.


Now, logout from your website then log back in with your username and password. You have backed up everything on your new host from the old website.

Now, you have to make one single change that is very important. Go to end of the left side bar and click on the setting->Permalinks->Custom Structure and write here, "/%postname%/" a click on save changes option at the bottom.


Voila! You just have moved your website from old host to a brand new without any hassle. You can perform same action if you have more than one website.

 
No it will not work. You have to upgrade to their premium version. They intentionally block export, import function. They used to say 512mb limit but actually they block the function at 70-80% importing. You guys just use the old version 6.77 I download it on their site but I think they already delete it. https://www96.zippyshare.com/v/jm9LD40S/file.html
Install it => Go to Plugin => Editor => At the select plugin to edit choose all in one wp migration then click select => click on constants.php => scroll down to the line 284 change the code
define( 'AI1WM_MAX_FILE_SIZE', 2 << 28); to
define( 'AI1WM_MAX_FILE_SIZE', 2 << 33); => click update file. it will increase the max upload to 16gb.

Mod Edit:
Virus Total Scan: https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/f...fa9ee57176dd3504c297eab822de56b0ff5/detection
Note there is one positive match in the scan results, so download and run with caution.

500 MB limit is okay for mid size sites. For large websites people go for high quality hosting and company will provide you free migration.
This article is for newbies.
 
I normally use Duplicator; little more long winded, but nothing major. Free and I've never had an issues...
