- Open an account in the new hosting provider
After making payment, normally they will send an email to you that contains your login information (username and password), your temporary URL and their DNS information. Just keep it.
- Login to your new Control Panel
Using your username and password, login to the control panel (e.g. CPanel). Create the email accounts you have already had in the old hosting provider.
- Uploading
Upload the files to the root directory (e.g. public_html) of the new hosting server. Once again, use a FTP software such as WS-FTP to do it. Before you do it, don't forget to setup the software with your new host name (e.g. ftp.yourdomain.com), username and password. Don't forget also to transfer the files correctly (ASCII/binary).
