In this post i want to share a details on how to move WordPress to new host, Hostgator in this specific case, with 0 down time. Information provided is based on my recent personal experience of relocating my WordPress blog from Site5 hosting account to Hostgator and ensuring that I had no outage period and yet was able to verify that entire process worked without a glitch.

There are several steps to this process and each requires verification to ensure that everything will function properly but once you get them all right – you will ensure that your visitors will not be impacted during your move and if you rely on your blog as income source, I think it is very important. Not only does it allow your to reduce any nuisance but also avoid unprofessional appearance during your move of WordPress blog to new host.
