I need to move an active e-commerce website from one Hostinger account to another and keep everything running smoothly while the DNS change propagates. The store runs on custom code also, so the migration has to preserve every tweak, integration, and design touch exactly as it is today.
I’m not sure whether a straight SQL export/import is the best path or if an automated tool would be safer, so I’ll rely on your advice for the database step. Whichever route we choose, the result must include every product, customer record, and order history intact and fully usable the moment the site comes back online.
Key goals
• Copy all site files, assets, and custom scripts to the new Hostinger account
• Migrate the database with zero data loss, following the method you recommend
• Update configuration, environment variables, and any hard-coded paths to match the new server
• Point the domain to the new account and confirm SSL is still active
• Test the checkout flow end-to-end to be sure payments, user logins, and admin functions still work
Acceptance criteria
1. Site loads from the new account with no broken pages or missing assets
2. Admin dashboard shows current orders, customers, and inventory levels
3. A test transaction completes successfully and appears in the order log
4. DNS propagation and SSL verification are documented so I can reference them later
Please outline your migration plan, estimated timeline, and any access details you’ll need so we can get started right away.
