What if its already a website thats made just on a different hosting plan within siteground? I have found ZERO info and videos on how to do this its crazy

When you say "different hosting plan", do you mean different acount holder as well? If so, you would move it the same way I describe. I have found SG support to be helpful; they could probably answer your specific question.

@@DotComClassroom I figured it out, same account literally just bought a new hosting plan instead of renewing the old one. I created a new site with temp domain, and migrated the site on expiring hosting plan to the temp domain site using sg migratory plugin, had to change the domains to something else random after the site migrated to use the domain on the new migrated site

This is very helpful as I need to move a website to SiteGround. I also need to move the 5 email addresses which are associated to the website (and ideally keep all the email content and the existing passwords,) if that is at all possible.

Yes. Good question. SiteGround DOES have an email account migrator as well. It is a seperate process from the website migrator, but it is fast and easy. Super handy :)

I start transfering the domain as you show in the video and after click on transfer it starts the loading animation but the progress bar doesn't move. I've waited couple of hours and nothing. Anything you could help me with? thanks a lot!

Does the old site stay live for my business owner client while I rebuild his site on siteground?
@DotComClassroom
@DotComClassroom Год назад
As long as you don't close the old hosting account...yes, because you have two copies of the site hosted on 2 servers. But the issue is where you are pointing the domain at the time. You would need to keep it pointed to the old server while you are developing on the new one. Then point to the new one when you are ready.

Hi Greg. Thank you for this video, it's very helpful! Does the migration from one host to another (SiteGround) affect Web traffic? My WordPress site has a decent traffic on Google so I am wondering if this move can affect SEO.
@DotComClassroom
@DotComClassroom Год назад
Good question. Moving your website to a new host shouldn't have a big enough affect on your SEO to worry about, as long as all of your on-site SEO elements remain (meta, links, navigation, site structure, etc.) When you move to SiteGround, you are moving to one of the fastest Content Delivery Networks; so if your old host was slower, your traffic stats should get better. But just moving doesn't hurt your site unless you create downtime with the move.

​@DotComClassroom well guess what? I ran it twice and it failed twice. Contacted SG chat support and they confirmed the fails were due to the SG migrator. So much do they gave me a FREE tech support token where they migrated it for me.

@@nssdesigns Sometimes you have to increase your memory limit setting on the source website or there isn't enough buffer to do the migration. But SG is great about doing it for you if you get stuck. Another plug for SiteGround :)

Hi Greg, great video. I wonder if you could help me with a similar task. I'm considering buying a new hosting plan with siteground to take advantage of a discount they are offering at the mo (already have a hosting plan that expires soon) and want to move my website from current siteground to new siteground host plan. Problem is I'm not moving to/from different hosts, can only have domain listed once and the name servers will be the same for both plans? Any ideas how I can do this? Siteground weren't very helpful unfortunately.
@DotComClassroom
@DotComClassroom Год назад
I don't think you can get the discount unless you are a new customer. The first year of hosting is bascially a loss leader for them, so they don't want existing customers to keep doing that each year. They make their money if you renew :)

Great video Greg, thank you very much. In my case I have a website associated with two subdomains and I cannot lose none of them. One of the subdomains' WordPress site is even more important than the WordPress site on the main domain, as the subdomain has much more organic traffic on Google than the main domain. So, I would like to know how to proceed in order to move the WordPress site on the subdomain from my old host to SiteGround? I am guessing that if I change the nameservers on my domain registrar all of my sites on the old host will no longer be live, so how to proceed in order to move the websites of the main domain and both the websites of the subdomains to SiteGround?

You might need to do it manually thru FTP - which is more complicated because you need to download the MySQL database from the old server as well as the WP files. Then upload everything to the new server before you change the DNS on the primary domain. But make sure you understand the diffrence between a SUB-\domain and an ADDON domain. They are very different. If you are using ADDON domains, then you can use the migration tool from Site Ground easily for each one.

If they are WordPress sites, you can do each one individually as I show in my video. If they are static/html sites with no database, you could use FTP to download the files, then upload them to their new hosting account(s)

@@3rdtwirl494 Not sure what you are asking. But your affiliate information is in your SiteGround account. There isn't a separate login for that. When you log into SG, you can access your Websites, Services, Billing, Affiliate, etc. all in one place.
