I have a domain I have built for a customer that I just want to change the hosting on not the domain itself through the registrar. I was looking for help on moving just the site and not the domain change. Does anybody know how to do this or where a tutorial is. I must not be asking the right question

All you do is change the current DNS to where you want to move the site to (new DNS). Just type DNS in search field at the top of the page or google how to move DNS. This moves the site but not domain register.

This is an example of what I’m talking about... Best of luck!

Wow that sounds much simpler than my suggestion. Thanks for sharing that :-)

If you have html files on your computer, you could ask Site Support (by clicking the blue SiteRubix button), for your FTP (File Transfer Protocol) details and simply upload to the WA hosting.
That way the domain stays with whoever (ie godaddy etc).
And the website is hosted at WA.
If you don't have the html files, then get access to the Control Panel of the current host - login and download the files.
Hope this helps. Dave

Have my ticket in to support now. Just waiting for it to get completed:)

Awesome. FTP is great :-)
You will need an FTP program installed on your PC.
There are free ones online.
Good luck. Dave

I have no idea how to do that but I can always ask around for you
