Once your site is on Toshost and working, finish up with these steps:

  1. Test everything: browse pages, submit forms, check images, and log in to your admin area.
  2. Update DNS: point your domain's nameservers (from your welcome email) to Toshost if you haven't already, and allow a few hours for propagation.
  3. Enable SSL: confirm your free SSL is active and your site loads over https://.
  4. Check email: send and receive a test message, and update your devices with the new mail settings.
  5. Keep your old host active for a few days until DNS fully propagates, then cancel it.

Finally, set up regular backups and update your CMS, plugins and themes. Spot anything broken? Open a ticket and we'll help you sort it out.
