Free migration
Moving day, minus the heavy lifting.
Your site keeps running at your old host while it’s copied over. Preview everything on our servers, then switch when you’re ready. Your visitors will never know.
Four ways to move in
Pick the path that suits you.
We move it for you
Tell us where your WordPress sites live today. Our team copies files and databases, fixes URLs, tests everything and hands you a preview link. You flip DNS when you’re ready.
Migration plugin
Install our plugin on your old WordPress site and paste the key it shows into your control panel. Files and database come over in small, resumable chunks, from any host, even without SSH.
Pull over SSH or SFTP
Give the control panel your old host’s SFTP or SSH details and it pulls your files and database across directly.
Upload an archive
Have a zip of your site and a database dump? Upload both. Static sites can also be imported straight from a Git repository.
What happens behind the scenes
Careful, by the book.
- CopyFiles and database are copied while your old site keeps serving visitors.
- RewireURLs are updated safely (serialized data included), and wp-config is pointed at your new database and cache.
- CheckIntegrity checks run, caches are flushed, and you get a private preview link.
- SwitchPoint your domain at us. The control panel checks your DNS and issues your free SSL automatically.

Migration questions
Moving questions, answered.
Will you move my existing website for free?
Yes. On Main Street, Frontier and Liberty our team migrates your WordPress sites for you at no charge. On every plan you can also use our migration plugin: install it on your old site, paste the key it shows into your control panel, and your files and database are copied over automatically. It works from any host, even ones without SSH.
Will my site go down during the move?
No. Your site is copied while it keeps running at your old host, and you get a preview link to check everything on our servers first. Only when you are happy do you point your domain at us, and the switch is seamless for your visitors.
Can I move from cPanel hosts like GoDaddy, Bluehost or HostGator?
Absolutely. WordPress sites move with our plugin or our team. For other sites, upload your files over SFTP and import your database with the database studio, or send us a message and we will help.
