Portal Migration from emergent to Linux Server

I have the complete yogcc.com codebase stored in GitHub and it currently runs on Emergent’s infrastructure. I now want that same portal running smoothly on my own Linux-based server.

The server type field in my brief is marked “Web Developer,” which simply reflects that I’m looking for hands-on expertise; I’m open to whichever setup—shared, VPS or dedicated—you judge most appropriate for the workload.

What I need from you
• Pull the repository, replicate the existing build, and migrate every component to my Linux machine.
• Handle any configuration tweaks so the site behaves exactly as it does now (environment variables, SSL, database connections, etc.).
• Point the domain to the new host and verify that every page, form and asset loads without errors.
• Provide a short hand-off note describing the steps you took so I can maintain the deployment going forward.

If you’ve moved production sites between hosts before, this should be a straightforward job; once everything is live and tested, the work is complete.
