I have a WordPress site running on Kinsta (a staging and live site ) and I’m ready to move them between staging and production environments without the usual nerves. Rather than handing the whole task off, I want to understand every lever you pull so I can repeat the process confidently next time. Here’s what I expect from our collaboration: • A clear, step-by-step walkthrough of migrating databases, core files, themes, and media—explained as you go, not just done behind the curtain. • Practical guidance on updating and managing existing plugins. • Simple performance and health checks tailored to Kinsta—caching, PHP versions, backups, and any tools inside MyKinsta that keep a live site humming. • A concise reference document and screen-recorded session I can revisit before the next migration. By the end I should be able to: 1. Spin up a new environment, move data safely, and switch DNS with minimal downtime. 2. Spot and fix common plugin or theme conflicts after migration. 3. Maintain an optimized, secure production site as new pages and features are added. If guiding, teaching, and documenting are second nature to you—and you know Kinsta like the back of your hand—let’s get started.
