Why would you want to do that?
After paying for aWiz, which assuming you have it working properly, is an awesome CMS and you can set updates up so far in advance, that you don't even have to worry about it...aside from adding new content....

aWiZ is a pain when it comes to design integration, many things are not possible there and hasn't been upgraded for many years. Besides I like many Wordpress themes so with some customization I will have much better looking site than now.

Why would you want to switch to Wordpress? Wordpress kicked ass in 2005. Now, though... just don't - unless you want to hire someone full time to keep it updated and functioning. Every single day that you login to your Wordpress admin, you'll get "WAH! WAH! WAH! I are broken again! Update Me PLEEZ! May I can has cheezburger? I so sorry your was hacked!"
I own cats that can build a better, more secure CMS just by purring and walking across my keyboard. The grass used to be greener... now, not so much. I love the naughty Nun, btw. |

Wordpress is doing fine for me on other sites, it's free and very flexible. I prefer to stick to WP.

Must be doing a lot of sales if you can't afford a CMS.

Make sure its all working in a folder first.... then move it to the root... no downtime at all.

u can also add something along the lines of define('RELOCATE',1) in wp-config.php (double check that... might be wrong been a while) and it should auto update. if u just move all the files from a subdir, the .htaccess will be wrong as well (change /subdir to /) and permalinks will be wrong until you change the home/site url as above |
