How to transfer your site without having downtime FTP CPANEL focused Switch your webhosting without having your website go down 1. Sign up for any web hosting package before cancelling your old web hosting account. 2. Download your entire old website using a FTP program or using CPANEL backup utility. The upload your entire web site to your new web hosting account by FTP or using CPANEL backup utility again. If you are using FTP, you will need to re-chmod your folders if you are running scripts. 3. After you have moved all of your files to your new account, you need to change your domain name’s name server. Make sure everything is working by using a temporary address at your new hopefully great web host before you update your nameservers. Then go to where you registered your domain name or email them directly. Update your name servers to the new nameservers your new host emailed to you when you signed up. 4. After 24-72 hours your domain will be fully propagated and pointing to your new web hosting home. 5. You can now cancel your old web hosting and your web site should be fully up and running with no downtime experienced at all. In all cases it’s great to backup. CPanel has a great tool to allow it.
