Moving your MySQL database to your new hosting account can be accomplished one of two ways:

1. If your current hosting provider gives you access to PHPMyAdmin, you can export your database and save the file to your hard drive.  Then, sign into your new hosting account and create a new MySQL database.  With your new database created, click the PHPMyAdmin button in your Cpanel, select the correct database and Import the database file you previously saved to your hard drive.
2. The second way is through the use of SSH and the command line.
