No worries!
OMGoodness!! Just what I needed! Now I need to view your other videos in order to hopefully make a few changes to my website (still on SG) before transferring it. I created my site with Hello World and Elementor and am having trouble with my header and footer (of course!). I'm hoping one of your videos will guide me on how to change the theme possibly or make corrections. Do you do site reviews/consultationis - I could certainly pay for a consultation! Thank so much! Plus I enjoy your humor!
Thanks for that mate! Here's my SSN ... ha!
Dank je wel. Love your tutorials. Very educational, easy to follow and super funny. The Dutch have humor. I’m from Rotterdam living in the US now. Built my complete website with one of your tutorials building a site starting with an empty theme and Elementor. Love it. That was two years ago. I’m going to make the change from Siteground to Hostinger today. Siteground is way too expensive.
Wow at last.. The long wait is gone! Thank you so much Sir Ferdy.

thank you so much Ferdy! Really useful. And funny. I get so much benefit from your tutorials. I wish I'd watched to the end before renewing my domain!
I just switched to hostinger on cyber monday. My reason was the same as yours: No love to current customers at renewal. My old host used to give discounts for the three ear plan, but they changed it this year. I cannot in good conscious, just give away money.

This video is exactly what I need! I need to transfer my website from a storefront I don't own (similar to teespring) but I do own the domain. I lost my login tho so I have to go thru them. My question was can I transfer the content and shopping cart data or do I have to rebuild from scratch? Now I want to know what does clientTransferProhibited mean.
I don't know if it's only me, but you make me lough out loud every time I am watching you. Hope you are doing great, perfect tutorials AS ALWAYS!

I really find the guide for how to transfer domain very valuable! I was looking for a way to transfer my domain from Hostinger to cargo. Unfortunately, cargo is not supporting a transfer of domain. Any suggestions to how I should go about this? Perhaps delete my domain on Hostinger and then wait until it becomes available so I can use it on cargo?
hey. thank you again Ferdy :) i need WooCommerce ... what's the difference will be then at the beginning?
Your content is excellent! My concern is, will migration affect the site's SEO and traffic?
Hi Ferdy, thanks for the regular content and the great videos. I really enjoy watching your tutorials. I have a question and I hope you help me. Can you tell me please, which recording program you use to record your screen and how exactly you do the effect in this video at 2:22min.? I hope you will reply and answer my question. Best regards Basti
Very helpful as always, thanks. Will this process still work if you 1) migrate the content to a temporary domain on the new hosting provider 2) update the domain's nameservers on the old host and 3) connect the domain to your website on the new host?
Excellent video as usual Ferdy - i wanted to migrate a website from Amazon AWS to Hostinger and it went like a dream - many thanks from sunny Spain.

I understand how to copy and backup the website files. But, somewhere I am missing a step in backing up the emails. My emails with Nexcess are with Roundcube - how do I export those mailboxes to my desktop? I right clicked and nothing happens...
if i don't want to make the mail switch to mail to see them on the new hosting mail account what should i do?
Thanks Ferdy for the gret video and all the information...Although i have a problem...I followed all the steps till 17:35 minute of your video where you press "edit site" and as you said you needed about 10 minutes to access your new wordpress installation...In my case i wait about 12 hours till now and i continue receive this message "Oops! That page can’t be found."...Is there any solution in that? Or i just have to wait more?
Does duplicating your emails also duplicate the organization folders you have? Or does it only do flags?
Hi Ferdy! Thanks for this tutorial! I have migrated one of my websites using your instructions with the all-in-one WP migration and everything went perfectly! There is an option to migrate directly/automatically from Hostinger.. what would be the difference? Would you recommend migrating manually instead of using this Hostinguer option?

This is a very informative video - thanks. One question: What if you transfer a website with more users and email accounts. Do you then have to log in for each user to copy the emails across or is there a way to do it as the domain admin?
Thanks for this tutorial, however after migrating to Hostinger I see he following text every time I switch to a page in the site's dashboard: "This is a preview of a website by a customer of Hostinger". I have to delete every time this text. How can I solve this issue? Kind regards! Eric
I always find your content helpful and this was no different, thank you. Does this system also save the plugins you had on your old web site?

Question for Ferdy and the community. Moved a website between servers,. Client had large amount of old mail. Created a new account on the new cPanel, moved the range of emails manually into the cur folder and everything looks good from an INBOX standpoint. My issue is when I connect to the mail client (in this case Mac Mail) the sent folder didn't populate. Is there a file/record from the old server I'm missing? Any help would be outstanding. Thx
Kan jij ook een video maken hoe je een volledige website verhuisd met directadmin naar een andere directadmin
I don't know what I am doing wrongly but my website link opens a "Just another wordpress site" sample page. But then on another device I might luckily open the correct website. But most of the time, another web page that I don't know off opens
Question: Isn't it usually advised for a business (who has clients) to keep domain registration separate from the hosting in case of security/hacking issues, account lockout by the Hosting company, etc. Just wondered what your thoughts are on this?

Great video, as usual Unfortunately in my case the backup import has totally failed... After 12 hours waiting for it to be done, or says that there is a critical error. The site is online, but I can't edit it as wordpress won't login due to critical error. However, for some strange reason, I can edit it on my Android phone... Do you know what I should do?
Ferdy my Hostinger is very slow and unstable with the load speed.. which web hosting do you suggest?
I want to backup my website to save it for a future date and not migrate in simultaneously. After I backup while I'm with my current hosting provider & save the files. My plan is to cancel my subscription with the hosting provider as the renewal is due in a couple of weeks but I need time before going with a new hosting company. Will I be able to get a complete restore in the future from the files I saved as I will have canceled the hosting. I appreciate any support & I'm eager to sort before the renewal date. Thank you in advance.
17:23 still showing "This page doesn't seem to exist." should i want or transfer my domain to hostinger? on HostGator is finishing in few days... also when i transfer i see i can only buy for 1 year, can't buy for more years to get some discount? (I have my Wordpress backup thanks to your tutorial) You should do a Transfer/migrate tutorial for same name of website

Hi Ferdy, op deze video was ik aan het wachten. Maar toch een vraagje. Ik maak (voor vrienden) een website onder een subdomein van mijn eigen domeinnaam. De site is nu klaar en wil ik de site migreren naar de domeinnaam van mijn vrienden. Kan ik die migreren zoals in de video of moeten er parameters aangepast worden. Het is trouwens een totaal andere domeinnaam. We zijn wel beiden bij dezelfde provider. Alvast bedankt voor een antwoordje.
