Moving sites from one host to another

You can also make a seemless hosting change..

Make sure 1 week before you want to move you have duplicated your site from your old host to the new host. then apply for the dns change, should take 24-72 hours for your new host to be getting hits from your domain. and you wouldnt loose any traffic from downtimes.

After you are certain your old host is not getting any hits, close your account with them.

I've done it about a dozen times to date all went off without a hitch.
