    • Manual Transfer: Download your website files via FTP, export databases, and then upload them to the new hosting account. This method is suitable for smaller websites.

    • Migration Plugins: Some hosting providers offer migration plugins or tools that automate the transfer process.

  • Upload Files to New Hosting:
    If you’re using manual transfer or a tool that requires file uploads, connect to your new hosting account via FTP and upload your website files.

    Check and update any configuration settings that may be specific to your hosting environment. This could include paths, database connection details, and other server-specific settings.
