Switching your website from GoDaddy to Disoh is a simple process if you prepare properly and change your domain over last. This guide explains how to migrate without downtime.
Before you start #
- Back up your website files and databases from GoDaddy.
- Note your email accounts and current DNS records.
- Have your Disoh account and domain details to hand.
Step 1: Export from GoDaddy #
Download your site files and export your database from GoDaddy’s hosting panel. If your domain is registered with GoDaddy, you can either transfer it to Disoh or simply point it to Disoh later.
Step 2: Rebuild on Disoh #
- Add your domain and upload your files.
- Import your database.
- Recreate email accounts and enable SSL.
Step 3: Test thoroughly #
Preview the site on Disoh before switching your domain, checking pages, forms, and any database-driven content.
Step 4: Switch your domain #
Update the nameservers or A record to point to Disoh, keeping GoDaddy active until DNS has fully propagated and email is confirmed working.
