Session Description:
Migrations are a thing we have to do sometimes but dread doing. You ask yourself before, will it go okay? You think later, did I forget anything?
In this talk I'm going to give you some key insights into migrating information from WordPress.com to a WordPress.org self-hosted site. After we’ll discuss the details of migrating a production web site from one host to another. I'll give you the tools to test the migration before completely flipping the switch. Lastly, we'll talk about when you want to migrate content from a development copy of the site over to your production site.
