    if you're using a basic cpanel host you can archive your www/mail/databases via that. otherwise, rsync keeps permissions, and then manually backup databases or export to a file from phpmyadmin or such. Also, if you have control over your DNS zone settings, set the TTL to a low number a day before the switch. It'll get picked up quicker usually by the root DNS servers.
