This means that you have an existing WordPress website on a particular hosting but want to switch or change your hosting company.

Then install the wpvivid backup migration plugin. After activation, the plugin page appears. You will see the backup and restore options in these two different locations. Now click on “Backup Now” in the plugin dashboard. The creation of a backup file will begin immediately. Depending on the size of your website, this may take several minutes. Backup completed. If you scroll down you will see the backup file here. We now need to download the backup files. Click on the download button. Here you can see the backup files. Here I have a backup file as I have a small website. Multiple files may appear. Download all files here. Download completed. Now we need to set up our new hosting with our current domain. First open the access data for your newly purchased hosting. Typically they send this server information and login details when you purchase the hosting. Here you can see the server IP, name servers and Cpanel credentials. If you ever didn't receive this, contact your new hosting provider. They will send this to you again. After you find this email or information, contact your domain registration company. We need to change the domain name server. Copy the new name servers from your email and replace the old name servers. Name server changed successfully. Now our domain will be connected to our new host. But this process is not instantaneous. The connection between domain and hosting takes place within 48 hours. But usually 1 hour is enough. Let it happen quietly. We will now install WordPress on our new hosting. Copy the server IP address. And paste it with a Cpanel directory. And copy the Cpanel username and password to log in. Click here. Then click Install. Now select HTTPS and the domain name. Empty the subdirectory. Remember the admin username and password, we will need these later. Scroll down and click Install. WordPress has been installed successfully. Now we wait several hours for the domain to connect to the new hosting. After an hour we visit your website. This time I'm updating the page. If you don't notice any change in your website's design, you can be sure that the domain and the new hosting are still not connected. Typically an hour is enough for this, but if you're in a hurry, you can use VPN to get to work sooner. Let's connect to a VPN and check our website. Here I am using a VPN extension in another browser, you can also use a VPN software for this. Look, our domain now appears like this. If you wait for several hours and constantly check your website, you may see this interface appear in your main browser. If you don't have a VPN, please wait a few hours until this interface appears. Go to wp-admin login. Log in with your username and password that you used when installing WordPress. Now install and activate the wpvivid migration plugin here. Scroll down and click Upload. And upload the backup file you just downloaded. Upload completed. Now you will find the backup file in the backup area. Click Restore. The recovery process will start. Restore completed successfully. It was automatically logged out. First, let's look at the homepage of the website. Well, the website loads fine. This means that the migration of the WordPress site to the new host is complete. If you check in your main browser you will see that you only had these themes. These default themes were not installed. However, if you switch to a VPN-enabled browser, the default themes will appear. Once you see the default themes on your original website, you can actually start editing or making changes to your website. I prefer to wait a day after the restore. After 6 hours I access my website from my main browser. Lets see what happens. Yes, the default themes are displayed on the theme page. This means my website is now online with a new host.
