It was time to move my website to the hosting here at WA.
I had thought about it for weeks and then spent time checking threads here for the simplest way.
Got some great guidance from MarionBlack, installed the clone wp plug in and got under way.

Following the procedure at site builder was straightforward and in no time, I was logging in through WA.
Schoolboy error: did not allow enough time for the change, so was unknowingly still working on my site on its original host.
Result was, when logging in the next day, all my content (5 pages and 40+ posts) had disappeared.
Thanks heaven Marion had recommended backing up a file to my computer.
After only a couple of hours feeling very sorry for myself, site support worked their magic and rescued me.
Huge thanks to Marion Black and site support.
