Foolproof way of doing it without any help module

On the old Host:
Always download a complete backup of your website (zipped or tar.gz)
Download the database
Download the site folder (zipped or tar.gz)

=====================================================================

On the New Host:
Reinstall Processwire with, if you can, the same processwire version on the new host
After reinstalling processwire, Delete the site folder and Empty the database
Upload the site folder from the old host and unzip on the new host
Import the database from the old host
Empty cache and sessions
Adapt the config.php where necessary to the new host (database credentials, salt and hosts)

Thats it

Need any assistance ? PM me.

You might want to checkout this awesome module called Duplicator. You can easily migrate complete installations from one host to another.
