Site Migrations

I've had to up my blog network and move it to another host, before I get started wanted to see if all my ducks line up as the last time I tried there were error. If anyone has expertise, I welcome you input.

1/ Set up my database in new host
2/ FTP my site
3/ Change the name of my back-up DB and import

I'm moving from Direct Admin to cPanel, I'm certain there will be server specific directory titles or code I will have to change, but not certain where. There are all Wordpress blogs by the way, and some site have two databases contained within'.

The cPanel spoke of transferring using a .bak file, which I'm not familiar with. I'd like to assume the sql.zip should do the trick.

Any advice before I get started? I have over ten site to migrate, so I'm hoping to get it right from the start.
