Migrating your website to 4GoodHosting

You can move yourself, or let us move you.

Option A — We migrate for you (free on annual+)

From our Website Transfer page:

• We can migrate site, email, CMS, and databases.
• Requires prepaid annual (or longer) billing.
• Up to 20 GB at no charge; ask us if you need more.

Open a ticket after signup with old host login details (or cPanel token), domain list, and preferred cutover time.

Option B — DIY (typical WordPress)

1. Order hosting and log in to cPanel.
2. Export files and database from the old host (or use a migration plugin).
3. Create a MySQL database and user in cPanel; import the SQL.
4. Upload files to public_html (SFTP) or restore a cPanel backup.
5. Update wp-config.php with the new DB name/user/password.
6. Test via hosts file or temporary URL before changing nameservers.
7. Switch nameservers to us (guide).
8. Force HTTPS; run Email Deliverability for SPF/DKIM.

After cutover

• Lower TTL at the old DNS a day before if you control it.
• Keep the old host a few days as rollback.
• Update computers and phones that used old mail server hostnames.
