New: Account Moves Made Simple

Moving a website to a DreamHost account just got a whole lot easier.

Our new Account-to-Account Site Move tool used to be a manual, multi-step process involving backups, file transfers, and database imports. Now, moving a WordPress site between two DreamHost accounts can be done entirely from the DreamHost panel! No technical skills required.

What’s New?

  • Fast, in-panel transfers
    Available for WordPress sites—just head to Manage Websites and select Account-to-Account Site Move
  • No need for manual backups
    Skip the tedious download/upload process—once both parties confirm, the move happens automatically in the background
  • Simple, secure confirmation
    Use a short-lived move key (valid for 48 hours) to verify the receiving account and start the transfer
  • Clear move statuses
    Know exactly where your site move stands with built-in progress tracking updates
