Migrate 3-5 Sites + Backups

Job ID: 40257072

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

I have 3–5 cPanel-based websites that I’d like moved off my current server and onto a reliable VPS plan that sits around the $5/month mark. Your first task will be to recommend a host that meets that price point without sacrificing stability or disk I/O performance. Once we agree on the provider, I’ll spin up the box (or give you temporary access to do so) and you can handle the end-to-end migration.

Because these sites generate revenue for me, daily protection is non-negotiable. I want an automated backup routine—cron, JetBackup, rsync to remote storage, or another proven tool—running every 24 hours, plus an easy way for me to trigger an on-demand manual snapshot before plugin or core updates. Restores need to be fast; a single-command or one-click option is ideal.

Deliverables
• Written suggestion of at least one $5-range VPS that fits the project needs
• Successful migration of all sites, databases, SSL certificates, and email accounts (where applicable)
• Automated daily backup job configured and tested
• Simple manual backup/restore method documented
• Short post-migration report summarising DNS changes, paths, and how to use the backup system

I’m comfortable inside cPanel but I don’t want to babysit the command line. Please bid only if you’ve done multiple site migrations at scale and can complete this without extended downtime.
