Before moving a website, ask the new host what they need and what they will handle. Clear answers prevent downtime and missing data.
Ask What Is Included
Will they migrate files, databases, email, DNS records, cron jobs, redirects, and SSL settings, or only the website files?
Ask About Testing
Can you preview the migrated site before DNS changes? This is important for WordPress, shops, and custom applications.
Ask About Email
Email is often separate from website hosting. Make sure MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records are preserved.
Ask About Rollback
Keep the old hosting available until the new site is confirmed working.
A good migration starts with questions, not file transfers.
