Moving from one host to another

Over the years, I have had to move entire sites from one hosting service to another for various reasons.  Either the host changes their level of hosting, cant upload due to no access to the ftp server, or the host just disappears.  What ever the reason, it can be a real pain to move an entire site. 

When you are faced with moving your site, you may have to spend some time searching for a new host.  you will want to find a host that supports most if not all of the features that your site needs.  You have two choices: Free or paid hosting.  Not all paid hosting service are equal.  Some support items and others do not.  The same is true for free hosting. 

The best way to start is to go to several free hosting search listings or for paid hosting use the links below:

100 Best Free Web Space - Free Web Hosting Services

The Official Free Web Hosting Guide - Resources

TheFreeSite.com: free web hosting, Web space, free web pages, web sites, Webmaster services, HTML

Paid web hosting - Google Search

After selecting a hosting service.  Sign up to their service and get all of the upload information.

If you are using FTP, go to this page for info on what to do: Moving site Via FTP

Getting your site uploaded is only half of what you need to do.

Once you have finished uploading to the new site, check your site to verify that all of your pages are working and look the way you intended them to look.

Now for submitting to search engines, otherwise no one will be able to find you.  One place I use is AddMe, Free Search Engine Submission Site Promotion and Website Optimization They will submit to 14 of the top search engines, for free.  There are many places that will submit your site for a charge.
