    Hi, I have a site built using Enfold. Now want to replicate the site on another domain for an overseas market. The content would be rewritten before it went live. What’s the best way to do the set up? I’ve got to think about wordpress, theme (I know a separate license will be needed), database etc. Then I’ll put it all behind a holding page while I rewrite the content. Would welcome your advice as to the most efficient way to do it all.

    Then any advice as to how to help google display the right results for the right market.

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    There is a wonderful plugin called backupbuddy that will take a full copy of a current site (database and all files) that you can then deploy elsewhere. This is by far the easiest method I know of migrating sites. During migration it also re-writes all links in database. I have used it to move sites from dev to uat to live with no issues.

    It isn’t free but if you are going to be moving several sites it is worth its weight in gold.

    As a bonus you can schedule partial or full back ups each week / month which adds a nice level of security in case the worst happens.
    I also use it before any WordPress or plugin up date to back a site up.

    You can manually export pages / posts/ etc via WordPress and then manually export the database. Import them both to the new domain and do a sql search to change urls.

    Hope that helps a little
