    Import Size Issue: Dale, this video is fantastic. It only misses one small item that a few folks below and myself have. Our sites file size exceed the import limit you don't mention but can be seen at 4:54 into the video. My hosting provider limits imports to 128Meg. Yours looks like its 256meg. Any export that exceeds 256Meg would fail to import. So here is the solution or work around for folks who run into this issue with their hosting company. Call the customer support line of your hosting company, in my case Ionos / 1and1. Ask their support team to expand or extend the file size limit for import. I was able to get 400megs. If your .wpress export file is less then the 400 megs it will import perfectly fine like the video shows above. Hope this helps everyone out. Good luck and happy hosting 🙂

    Huge help. Got paid a great sum to design a website for a doctor. Turns out he didn’t want a new site, he wanted his old one at a new domain address. This tutorial just helped me make good money with minimum effort. Thanks, Dale.

    Hi Dale, all this is new to me and once I started trying to make a blog on my own, I was so lost so I started searching CZcams to see if I could find WP tutorials to help me not feel so lost but nothing that I watched gave me what I was looking for because they rushed and skipped through everything UNTIL I came across your video! I don’t normally comment on anything but I had to with yours! Man, I gotta tell you, I fell in love with you! Lol! Your videos that is! I love how you take your time with such amazing patience and your voice is so warming, welcoming, inviting and a breath of fresh air! So because of that I subscribed to your post so that I can be notified of all your videos! Keep doing what you’re doing because your video made me feel that I could do this and it didn’t make me feel illiterate, confused, lost or uncomfortable, so thank you so much for that and keep doing what you’re doing! May God continue to bless all that you do! God bless you man!❤️

    Plugin works for small websites. But if you have a medium sized website, when you export to file it always throws an unable to export error. Of course you can export to other sources for $99
