## What moves and what does not
yaya reads the public text, headings and image references on your live Soloist site and drafts a new site from them. Your Soloist forms, newsletter list and integrations do not move. Set them up again in yaya.
> Warning: Soloist has announced that all Solo websites and data will be deleted on November 30, 2026. Download your data first. The details are in [Solo's shutdown FAQ](https://support.soloist.ai/doc/solo-shutdown-faq).
## Before you start
- A Soloist login and a yaya account.
- Your Account Code from Name.com if your domain was bought through Solo Domains.
- About 30 minutes for the site, plus DNS wait time.
## Move your site
1. Open the Solo designer and choose **Account Settings** from the top-right menu.
2. Click **Download Website Data**. You get a ZIP with your HTML files and a CSV of image links.
3. Download your images from those links. The ZIP does not contain the image files.
4. Open yaya and start onboarding. Paste your site address under **Already have a website? (optional)** and click **Import from my site**.
5. Read the description yaya filled in under **What does your business do?**. Fix it and add anything the page left out.
6. Pick your business type, location and language, then click **Next**.
7. Review the draft in the editor, upload your saved images, and publish. See [Publish your site](/support/articles/getting-started/publish-your-site).
## Point your domain to yaya
If you bought the domain through Solo Domains, Solo says to create a Name.com account and email your Account Code to support@soloist.ai. The domain then lives at Name.com. Follow [Move a domain to yaya](/support/articles/migrate/move-a-domain-to-yaya) from there. Pro or Grow subscribers get a prorated refund to the original payment method, calculated as of October 1, 2026.
To see what yaya costs and what the YAYASOLOIST code covers, read [Plans, costs and the YAYASOLOIST code](/support/articles/migrate/soloist-plans-and-code).

After the domain is live, check [Keep your email working](/support/articles/migrate/keep-your-email-working) and the [launch checklist](/support/articles/migrate/launch-checklist-after-a-move).
## Fix common problems
**The import is missing pages.** yaya reads the page at the address you paste. Paste the text of other pages into the description yourself.
**The site is already down.** Paste the text from your downloaded HTML files into the description field.
