Hi all
Migrating a website can be a daunting task, especially for those who aren't tech-savvy. What challenges have you faced during migrations, and how did you overcome them? Do you have any tips for making the process smoother?

Migrating a website can be tricky, but planning ahead makes it smoother. Always back up files and databases before starting, and test the migration on a staging site first. Minimize downtime by scheduling during low-traffic hours and lowering DNS TTL for faster propagation. Use tools like Duplicator or cPanel to simplify the process, and set up 301 redirects to avoid broken links. Finally, monitor the site post-migration for errors and keep a rollback plan just in case.

I recently completed a website migration, and the All-in-One WP Migration tool made the process much smoother. Before starting, I ensured I had a full website backup, including databases, files, and configurations. Additionally, I planned the migration during off-peak hours to minimize user impact. These steps made the entire process much more manageable.

Last year, we successfully migrated from our old CentOS 7 server to a new distro. This was my first time performing a migration using cPanel/WHM, and I have to say, the live migration features were incredible. When executed correctly, these features ensure minimal to no downtime for customers, making the process seamless and efficient.

How have you found migrating with cPanel?

What would you do differently next time?
