    Hi there I have rebuilt a site in WP and want to migrate to their host which has an existing site already attached to their domain – what do I do here?

    thanks

    Hi,

    You will need to set up a fresh installation of WordPress on their server (either moving or removing the old site), and then follow our migration guide:
    https://updraftplus.com/faqs/how-do-i-migrate-to-a-new-site-location/

    Alternatively, you can set up the fresh WordPress installation in a sub-directory, perform the migration, and then redirect the site to the WordPress location.

    Best Wishes,
    David N
