A: If your present web hosting provider can no longer meet the requirements of your site, or when you go through constant network downtime, or if you are forced to wait for hours for the client service staff to reply to you, it may be a good idea to switch your web hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your web sites along with your databases from your present provider to your new provider.
