2. Great question! Website migration can be a complex process, so having the right resources is essential. One excellent free resource is the “**Website Migration Guide**” by Google, which outlines best practices for ensuring a smooth transition without losing SEO value.

   For a more hands-on approach, I recommend checking out **WP Beginner’s migration tutorials**, which break down the process step-by-step specifically for WordPress users. If you’re open to paid options, consider **WP Migrate DB Pro**, which automates the migration of your database, or the **VaultPress** backup service, which also has migration features.

   Additionally, getting familiar with problems that can arise during migration, such as issues with redirects, broken links, or lost images, is important. Engaging with forums or communities like the WordPress subreddit can also provide real-time advice from other users who have faced similar challenges.

   Good luck with your migration! It’s an excellent opportunity to refresh your site and improve its performance.
