Hi,

First, thank you for this tutorial, it provided things step by step and is very much detailed. Second, I am sorry that you had to switch hosting providers, but maybe it worked out for the best.
I am relatively new to this WordPress site thing and can see that I have TONS more to learn. Most of what you were talking about looked like a foreign language, so it was nice to find your site and did all the hardwork of putting it into steps.
Great post!

I don’t have much experience with phpmyadmin, but I did exactly like that when I recently moved to a different server – worked flawlessly. Exporting using the “SQL” option from phpmyadmin and importing in another phpmyadmin – no problems.

I would probably also suggest to “zipped” the file – otherwise it could become quite big.

Yeah its rough, I didn’t know how to use phpmyadmin before using it to do this. I am a Unix Sys Admin for many years so I know my way around unix file systems very well, this is why I always choose Linux hosting providers instead of windows web hosting.

Ljuckily when it comes to doing backups and stuff I rely on my host and the hosting package we have, but I will say this serves as an excellent tutorial for people unlike myself that put way too much trust into the web hosts ability.

I don’t even like writing about web hosting issues, I start to twitch.
