But the content didn't go with it. How do I get the content to show up? The site is there but it's completely naked and new like I never wrote a word. Is that just what happens

So far they keep telling me to backup my current site but they have yet to tell me how I can get my old content from them. :(

The text content is contained in the mysql database files. You would need to download those and upload them to your new host. Also, any images would need to be downloaded and transferred as well. Usually everything except the sql file(s) can be done through FTP. I would contact support for the sql files, as I don't think we have access to that.

Because I've already transferred my site, where will I now find those files to download them? Are they still in WA hosting, or are they gone?

You're still a premium member here. I would suspect they could pull a backup unless you totally deleted the site here. In that case, it may very well be gone. :(

I haven't deleted anything so I'm hoping they can give me a backup to upload!
