Can I get some help transferring a domain and blog from one Godaddy account to the other?

Charles Montgomery · 04-03-2009, 06:43 PM

Just sold my first blog. I do not know how to transfer a blog. I can transfer a site, but I dont understand some of the instructions from WP.
The problem is, it is an autoblog, so I need the plugins to stay intact.

Can some one give me DUMMY instructions for how to transfer the blog. Godaddy to Godaddy

Are you wanting to transfer the BLOG or just ownership of the domain name. I was a bit confused because of your reference to Godaddy.

If you're needing to transfer just the domain name, log in to your Godaddy account and click on the domain name and then "Change Registration." I think that's the name of the link. Not positive, but it's something like that.

If you're needing to transfer the entire blog to a new host, you just upload all of the files from the blog and a copy of your word press database that was automatically created when you intalled word press on the site.

Here's a quick tutorial I just found by searching Google. Should help you:

Good luck! Once you do it the first time, it gets easier.
