My entire website sits on WordPress and I now need it moved, intact, from the current domain to a brand-new one. I already control both sets of DNS records, so you will have the access you need for nameserver changes, A-records, and SSL re-issue. The job is a straight, like-for-like migration: every page, post, media file, plugin, theme setting, and database entry must appear and function exactly the same on the new address. Forms, on-page search, membership areas, and any custom code snippets all have to work out of the gate with zero data loss. Smooth continuity matters. Please handle: • Full WordPress backup and restore • Secure file and database transfer to the new host/domain • SSL installation and mixed-content checks • 301 redirects and any additional SEO considerations so rankings are preserved • Post-migration QA: broken links, image paths, plugin licences, contact-form tests I want the switch-over to be invisible to visitors; no downtime, no missing assets. Once you confirm everything is stable on the new domain, I’ll point the DNS and we can run a final check together. If you’ve completed similar migrations before, especially those with high traffic, let me know—your proven process and timeline will help me decide quickly.

A domain migration should be invisible to visitors and search engines — the real work is not simply copying WordPress, but preserving URLs, database references, SSL, functionality, and SEO signals throughout the switch. I can handle the migration with a backup-first process and verify the new installation before the final DNS cutover. My process includes: • Full files + MySQL database backup before any changes • Complete WordPress transfer to the new host/domain • Safe database URL replacement without breaking serialized data • SSL configuration and mixed-content cleanup • Proper 301 redirects from the old domain to matching new URLs • Internal link and media-path verification • Testing forms, search, membership functionality, plugins, and custom code • Final QA for broken links and missing assets • Keeping the existing site available while the new environment is prepared and tested I’ll also document the important migration changes so the final setup is clear and maintainable. For a standard WordPress site, I would normally plan approximately 1–2 days for migration, testing, and final verification, depending on site size and hosting configuration. One important question before the move: will the URL structure remain exactly the same with only the domain changing, or are any page paths/permalinks changing as well? Best regards,

Hello, In a domain change the tricky part is rarely moving the files, it is replacing the URLs inside the database (serialised data) so member logins and forms work on the first try. My approach: I clone your site on the new domain first, we validate it together, and you point the DNS only once everything is green, invisible to visitors. Three things would help you frame it: - Is the new hosting already set up, and what access does it offer (cPanel, SFTP/SSH, or managed WordPress)? - Roughly how heavy is the site (media, database) and how much traffic does it get? - Are your premium plugin licences valid on a new domain without repurchase? Budget-wise you sit comfortably in range (around 14 to 27 EUR); I will confirm a firm figure once I have your answers. Kind regards, Eric
