How do I transfer my site from hosting on easywp to hosting on dream host. I made a WordPress site on easywp via namecheap because it was the cheapest hosting platform I could find but I hate it. There’s no cpanel and I find the site to be slow. I have my domain on godaddy and have not set up my domain with this easywp site yet because I tried and it wouldn’t let me login to the original site that I made. So I undid that and am now trying to transfer the site that I made on easywp to a dreamhost WordPress site. Is there a way?
I could always install WordPress on my server and reinstall everything it’s just a design but I’d love not to do that.

Basically I made the mistake of not connecting my host to my domain before starting on the design of my WordPress site so now they’re separate but I’d still like to change hosts. The dreamhost interface is much better.
What I could do is just start over, connect dreamhost hosting server to godaddy domain. Install WordPress. Install the template I started on for the design and just input everything again. But can also just download it from the current site and upload it again to the WordPress site?
You can backup your site using updraft or duplicator
A manual transfer is the better option. Backup your files and database, upload them to DreamHost, and update your wp-config.php file with the new database details
