Question
Migration from Siteground
- Posted July 6, 2013
Hi,
Could someone tell me like a four year old, the steps I need to proceed through in order to bring my site (Joomla 2.5) to your services at Digital Ocean. I currently have a VPS, and would purchase a VPS from Digital Ocean. The current PHP I would need installed on the VPS, the MYSQL I dunno about.
I want this to be an error free migration thereafter. So I would like some experts to engage here.
Thankyou,
William
