A VPS migration involves more than copying website files. Domains, DNS, databases, SSL, scheduled jobs, server configuration and integrations all need to be documented.

Plan the migration

Test the new environment before changing DNS and keep verified backups plus a rollback plan available throughout the migration.

What businesses should focus on

• Start with a clear business objective and customer journey.
• Build performance, mobile usability, security and SEO into development.
• Use analytics and real customer feedback to improve the experience.
• Keep the technology maintainable so future changes are easier.
