Migrating from GoDaddy to GetHosting.online Print

  • 0

Moving from GoDaddy to GetHosting.online can involve website files, WordPress databases, DNS, domains, email and Microsoft 365 services. GoDaddy often hosts several services in one place, so it is important to identify exactly what is being moved before making changes.

What to check first

  • Is the domain registered at GoDaddy?
  • Is DNS managed at GoDaddy?
  • Is the website hosted at GoDaddy?
  • Is email hosted with GoDaddy Microsoft 365, cPanel or another platform?
  • Are there SSL certificates, redirects or special DNS records?

Migration steps

  1. Audit current services.
  2. Take website and database backups.
  3. Copy the site to GetHosting.online.
  4. Test the site before DNS changes.
  5. Plan email migration or DNS routing.
  6. Update DNS or nameservers.
  7. Test website, SSL and email after cutover.

Important note

Do not assume moving the website also moves email. Website hosting and email hosting may be separate services.
