Moving WordPress Blog to new host
As capacity of my current hosting provider not sufficient for me I have to move to other house hosting provider, after read a lot of review of hosting company I decide to choose Hostmonster.
Their support is outstanding, I pick 1 year contract in hostmonster and using paypal as payment gateway without reveal my credit card information to hostmonster. Of course hostmonster support credit card but I have my own way 
My steps after get account in hostmonster are :
Steps taken in old hosting
1. Request for shell access. I have shell access in my old hosting place. Its more fun to use shell as I utilize provider bandwidth.
2. Backup database and compress all wordpress blog into single tar.gz file.
3. Transfer the compression file to my hostmonster account.
Steps taken in hostmonster account :
1. Create domain or add new domain addon (in case you have multiple domain in single account)
2. Create new database account, database user and assign that user to database.
3. Extract files from old hosting account to folder.
4. Edit wp-config.php, adjust variable according to steps 2.
5. Import database to system.
6. Done, ready to test.
In next post I’ll give screnshot of migration process.
Happy moving time
