I have recently got a droplet and transferred most of my website from a shared hosting company, and I want to transfer a mini-blog that requires a database. Is there anyway I can export this from phpmyadmin, and transfer it to my droplet? I believe I have installed all the necessary things - such as the MYSQL server.
