WordPress migration service: moving a site to a new host

Migrations done by WordPress experts

A WordPress migration is more than copying files. Database URLs, SSL certificates, DNS, email records, caching and redirects all have to move together, or the site breaks and rankings slip. Our WordPress migration service handles every step and checks your site page by page before your visitors ever see the new server.

What you get

What we move for you

Files and database

Your full WordPress install, themes, plugins, media and database.

URLs and redirects

Search-and-replace of URLs and existing redirects kept intact.

SSL certificate

HTTPS set up on the new server before the switch.

DNS and email records

DNS and email (MX) records recreated so mail keeps flowing.

SEO preservation

Sitemaps, canonical tags and Search Console checked after the move.

Full testing

Pages, forms, logins and checkout tested on a preview URL.

From any host

We move sites from anywhere

We regularly migrate WordPress sites from GoDaddy, Bluehost, HostGator, SiteGround, Wix-to-WordPress rebuilds and self-managed servers. You do not need any technical knowledge; we just need access to your current host or WordPress admin.

  • Free with every RankedWP hosting plan
  • Done during low-traffic hours
  • Old host kept live until we confirm success
  • Speed and security tune-up after the move

Why a professional WordPress migration service matters

Moving a WordPress site sounds simple until something breaks: images that point to the old server, a contact form that stops sending, email that disappears after a DNS change or a sudden drop in Google traffic. A careful WordPress migration service prevents all of these by planning the move and testing before anything goes live.

Planning the move

We start by reviewing your current host, your WordPress version, plugins and any custom code, plus your domain and email setup. That tells us what needs special handling, such as large media libraries, WooCommerce orders or email hosted with the same company as your old website.

Copy, test, then switch

We copy your files and database to your new RankedWP server, update every internal URL and install SSL. You review the site on a private preview address while the old site keeps running. Only when everything checks out do we update DNS, so visitors move to the new server without seeing an outage.

Protecting your search rankings

Search engines care about your URLs and content, not your server. Our WordPress migration service keeps every URL and redirect exactly the same, keeps your sitemap and SEO plugin settings intact and confirms in Search Console that Google can crawl the new server. Google explains the details in its guidance on moving a site without URL changes.

After the move

Once you are live, we tune caching, run a security scan and check speed so your site is not just moved but improved. And because migration is free with every hosting plan, there is no reason to stay with a slow or unreliable host.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is your WordPress migration service really free?

Yes. Migration is free with any RankedWP hosting plan. Migrations to other hosts are available for a one-time fee.

Will my site go down during the migration?

No. Your old site stays live while we copy and test the new one, and we switch DNS only when everything checks out.

Will I lose my Google rankings?

No. We keep your URLs, redirects and SEO settings exactly the same, so search engines see the same site on a faster server.

How long does a WordPress migration take?

Most small business sites are moved within one business day. Large or WooCommerce sites may take longer.

What do you need from me?

Login details for your current host or WordPress admin, and access to your domain DNS if we are updating it for you.
