Moving WP on same host (3 posts)

    I am hosting a WP site on Bluehost and want to move it;

    I originally created a website (call it mainsite) then added a blog by creating a directory called mainsite/blog and installing WP

    I would now like to use WP as the mainsite and mainsite/blog as just the blog page

    The blog has hundreds of post so I don't want to lose that.

    Is there any easy way to accomplish this (I'm a newbie) or should I just install another instance of WP at mainsite?

    Thanks in advance

    Try following this guide.

    It should show you how to move it without losing any content. Be sure that you have a backup of your content before starting, just in case something goes wrong.
