Point Your Domain to an External IP but keep Your Mail Local

Need to have your website on an outside server but keep your email on your local hosting account, it’s easy, learn how in 2 minutes.

Like me, you may have your email on an affordable cPanel hostinig account but need your website hosted on a more powerful server e.g. a cloud server, this is the best way to do that.

Make 4 quick entries in your cPanel or other hosting control panel and have your website hosted on one server and email on another.

In this video I will show you step by step how you can transfer your complete website and email account with all incoming and outgoing emails to a different webhosting provider. It can be a pain in the *** to figure how it is done. Especially with your incoming and outgoing emails that you don’t want to lose when you transfer everything to another webhosting platform. I faced the same issue. After some research and trial and error I found out how it can be done. It is much easier than I thought. That is why I created this tutorial.

We will talk about backing up your website tutorial with All In One WP Mirgration, exporting your mailboxes, unlocking your domain name, transferring your domain name, get webhosting at Siteground (or a different webhosting provider if you wish), installing WordPress again, linking your domain with the new webhosting provider, installing WordPress, putting back your WordPress backup that you made in step 1, creating a new email address, configure it in Mac Mail (or Microsoft Outlook if you want to), and copying and pasting your emails from your old email address in a way that they will be stored in the server of your new webhosting provider. After that we will transfer your domain to the new webhosting provider. Goodluck!
