This guide will help you seamlessly migrate your WordPress website into your new hosting environment.
You have two simple options for migration — choose the one that best suits your needs.

You can now visit and manage your newly migrated site.
Option 2: Manual Migration (Using the All-in-One WP Migration Plugin)
Best For: Users comfortable with manual file exports/imports (.wpress files)
Use Case: Migrating from a backup or when a .wpress file is already available.
How to Use:
On the Source WordPress Site:
Install and activate the All-in-One WP Migration plugin.
Export your website to generate a .wpress file.
On the Destination WordPress Site:
Log in to your hosting dashboard.
Navigate to WordPress → Import Existing Website.
Click Choose File and upload the .wpress file (Max size: 2GB).
Wait for the upload and deployment to complete.
⚠️ Note: This method overwrites all existing content on the destination site. Incremental updates are not supported.
