Need a little advice...

Hi guys,

It's the first time I'm selling a website, it's at auction and the reserve has been made, and not long left to go. My questions ;

Since it's a wordpress website, does the new owner get the wordpress account for this particular website, or do they open a new one for themselves..

I was also wondering what other details I should expect to give to the new owner. Sorry for my newbish questions but I guess if you have no experience then the only way is to ask..you're help will be much appreciated

I do sell WP sites

What I usually do is:

1. Set a separate cPanel hosting for the site
2. Install Duplicator plugin on my WP
3. Generate both WP (admin) and cPanel (user) passwords
4. Give them to the buyer

I also set the automated hosting deletion after 30 days of transaction so user can transfer everything without rushing.

All my buyers so far are happy with the scheme

Good luck!
