You would first want to set up hosting through a hosting provider like BlueHost. WPBeginner's referral link you can use for any discounts as well as qualify for the free site transfer service below.

When you sign up for BlueHost, they install the WordPress site for you to give you a starting point, if they have not we cover how to set it up in our guide below.

Now, on your new site, you would want to go under Tools, Import, install the WordPress importer tool if it is not installed, and run that importer.

Once you have installed and set up the site we would recommend going through the recommendations in the WPBeginner article below for what to set up on your site.

How do you keep the same domain and migrate it over?

[MusicAndTheScience]

Thanks. Great video. Would you please tell me how does someone become an expert on these things? Is there a college class that covers what you teach and do and maybe a few books. I'd like to learn not just how to operate the WordPress software but also learn the desktop publishing and word processing aspects of web building and the business side of building sites. So all of the bits and parts and how they go together. I ask because I am unemployed and this knowlege would open a lot of doors for me.

Nice, thank you. It worked, but my web is totally mixed now...everything is chaotic but I guess I just had to clean it up.

[alexconatus]

love it love you, thank you so much !

You advise us to uncheck the privacy options around minute 3:22 but how about our personal information such as address, phone number, etc?? What do we do to keep this info. hidden? Thank you in advance for your answer.

How about doing so without Bluehost? Most users have been lured into buying the domain directly in Google domain hosting service

[rdtwirl]

Hi, helpful thank you. im currently on a iPad Pro. once i get some funds in would like to upgrade. what computer or laptop would you recommend please. for website design and hosting, preferably apple. if you can share a spec.

Bluehost now has 2 buttons on it's homepage. One for "shared hosting" and the other is for "website builder". Which one should we choose?

[MelonMel]

Why aren't all my blog posts coming over when I import the data? I selected export all and ticked download and import file attachments, but it's missing a few things.

I'm stuck at a blank screen when I try to import.. what do I do now?

[GabrielGarciaDT]

hello! I have one problem... I have migrated my website and I have all the posts but their featured image is not syncronyzing well... when you migrate the posts you lost the featured images?

[awinkleintime]

I followed the steps exactly but it only copied over one of my blog posts instead of all 15. Any idea why this might have happened? Thank you.

[nikitaLEGALL]

do you have to reinstall plug ins once you migrate the site?

[JillianSchleger]

What if you don't have any content do you still need to redirect?

[taraomotosho]

When I tried this it didn't work for me. When I did the importing the screen when white and Wordpress never came back up. Any solution for that?
