7 Best WordPress Migration Plugins Reviewed and Compared for 2023
WordPress is incredibly easy to install, but if you want to move an already setup WordPress site to another server, it can be a bit of a headache.
There are several reasons why you might need to migrate your WordPress site. If you started development on a local server and you’re now ready to launch the site, you’ll have to copy it to the live server. Likewise if you work on client sites you’ll frequently need to copy across sites from your own server onto the client server. Or if you’re changing webhosts for whatever reason, you’ll also need to move your site over to the new host.
Moving your WordPress site manually is one option but it can be quite time consuming and there are several steps that need to be completed to ensure a successful migration. If you make a mistake at any stage, you can easily end up with a site that looks messed up or is missing content.
