I have a website made with xsitepro that I wish to replace with one created with different software, how do I get rid of the existing one?
Help please.

If your site is online, getting visitors, has PR and what-not, you MUST keep all the URLs intact. Eg: going from www.yoursite.com/how_to_groom_a_horse.html to www.yoursite.com/horse-grooming.php is an absolute no-no.

What software are you migrating to?

Oh, and if you don't care about any of the above, then all you need to do is login to your existing webhsot, delete the files. Upload the new files you made with whatever piece of software. Done.

Thanks Loup.
I've changed one site over to Shopfactory as shipping was easier to calculate.

Cheers Gordon

Sometimes I wish *I* could touch-type.

As a thought why not put the shop in a different directory and use the older pages as a funnel to the shop? That way you are just generating more pages? The sitemap and google sitemapwould need some work but I reckon it'd be worth it?
