Best practices for migrating website

[ad_1]

Besides doing backups I have a few questions on how to proceed in my case.

I have a main domain which is the live one example.com and the staging one which is staging.example.com. These are two completely different websites.

I want to migrate the staging one to the main domain, but my question is, should I do a fresh wordpress installation on there, or is it ok to just use a plugin and it will take care of deleting all the old files and databases ?

The other question is, what will happen to links ? All my links are staging.example.com/etc , will they change when I use the plugin ? The one I see mentioned that doe this is “WP all in one migration” but my website is bigger than the maximum size allowed, does anyone recommend any other good plugin ?

Thank you.
