Blog Design Studio: How to move your Wordpress blog to a new hosting location!

  • Nirmal · 1 year ago
    One doubt here,
    Do we need to delete the newly created tables, doesnt it get over written when we import old tables?

    Great article, I'm planning to move my blog also..this is handy tutorial. Stumbled.

    Very handy post.
    Though, I dont plan to move my blog any soon, this one is great to have an idea, what-is-to-be-done.

    Stumbled :)

    @ Nirmal : Well, good point but I've really not tried it ever. I just thought that it makes sense to drop the old tables first and then simply import the database.

    I'll come up with one more blog post which will tell you that how you can quickly move the whole blog and won't even take 5 mins. of yours.

    @ Aravind : I'm glad that you liked the blog post as much as I enjoyed writing it :)

    Hi Mayank,

    You could install Wordpress locally and do a test run to make sure you don't run into any snags. I did this and it helped build my confidence.

    Best regards,
