Seamless CS-Cart VPS Migration to new Host
Budget: $25 – $50 USD
My CS-Cart store must leave its current host because they are dropping PHP 7.3 support. I already have a fresh VPS ready that has Spanel. I've already brought over a test copy and tested for bugs; now we just need to plan a full migration of the live copy with our live CS-Cart site.
Here’s what I need done:
• Copy every file, database, and configuration from the existing server to the new VPS.
• Set up and test all DNS records in advance, lower TTL, and flip them at the optimal moment for near-zero downtime.
Also need help setting up mail with new DNS setings
• Keep Google and other search engines unaware of the move so that it does not effect SEO
• Verify that storefront, admin panel, and checkout work perfectly once traffic shifts.
Address any issues that may pop up during transfer
