If you have decided to move the Web site to a new hosting company, there are many different things, which will be necessary to ensure a smooth transition and seamlessly. Here is a useful checklist to help you transition easier.

1.Coordinate your switch. If you have a month-to-month hosting account, try to purchase your new hosting package about a week before your old account will expire. This will save you from paying for two hosting packages in one month, but still give you enough time to get everything done
2. Back-up all of your data.
3. Check your paths. If your new server has a different path to perl .
4. Back-up your databases.And Load your database back-ups on your new server.
5. Change your nameserver.
6. check all of the files on your site. Make sure that there are no dead links or scripts that are not functioning correctly.

Thanks for sharing this article , Apart form the steps you have mentioned i think the most important aspect is data migration. One should take proper backups before migrating to other server.
