I am now hosting my website on GoDaddy managed hosting (basic plan). Here the hosting provider company did not allow me to install third party plugins like cache plugins, etc. There are other limitations too.
Now I want to shift my website to Linux hosting. Please help me to backup my website because it automatically backs ups under GoDaddy basic plan.

- GoDaddy managed hosting doesn't give any access to cpanel, instead they give me their own 'managed system' access via login to godaddy account. – kgs_009 Commented May 7, 2019 at 6:21

Reset to default 0You could use a plugin like Duplicator to download a copy of your website and database. Then you could set up a new clean WordPress install on the new server and import your Duplicator-export.
That way you are able to test everything before canceling the GoDaddy-plan.
