Screencast Tuesday: Moving Your WordPress Site

How do you move your site? Believe it or not, we get asked this question a lot! This week I thought I’d show two ways I’ve moved sites when dealing with clients or switching hosts. Both are a fun easy way to move your site from one location to another. We first use our preferred tool, Backup Buddy, a great tool by our friends over at Plugin Buddy. After that, we take a look at doing things the manual way. And when I saw we do things manually, we do everything manually. We manually get a database dump, move files over manually, and manually edit the wp-config.php file. This screencast runs around 28 minutes, but covers both using Backup Buddy and moving things over the manual way.
