If your website is currently hosted on WordPress.com, you can move it to Disoh hosting to enjoy more flexibility, full control, and faster performance with our NVMe-powered servers. The process involves exporting your content from WordPress.com and importing it into WordPress on your Disoh hosting account.
Steps to migrate your WordPress.com site #
- Export your content from WordPress.com
- Log in to your WordPress.com dashboard.
- Go to Tools → Export.
- Choose All Content and click Download Export File.
- This will generate a
.xmlfile with your posts, pages, comments, and settings.
- Set up WordPress on Disoh
- Log in to your Disoh hosting control panel (DirectAdmin or cPanel).
- Install WordPress using the one-click installer.
- Once installed, log in to your new WordPress site (usually at
yourdomain.com/wp-admin).
- Import your content
- In your new WordPress dashboard, go to Tools → Import.
- Select WordPress Importer (install it if needed).
- Upload the
.xmlfile you downloaded from WordPress.com. - Assign posts to your user and import attachments if you want your media files copied.
- Check your design and plugins
- Themes and plugins from WordPress.com do not automatically transfer.
- You can install your preferred theme and plugins directly from the WordPress repository or upload custom ones.
- Update your domain
- If you own a domain through WordPress.com, you can transfer it to Disoh or update its DNS to point to our servers.
- Our support team can assist you with the DNS change.
