Hi

I am about to move www.grand-illusions.com (currently on a shared server) onto a dedicated server.

Everything has been uploaded to the dedicated server, which is at http://87.84.217.68/ (Note that only the Toy Shop is created in Actinic, and some links will take you back to the shared server.)

Anyway, the new site works as far as I can see. I have placed an order using my credit card, which went through fine.

Is there anything else that I can/should check on the new server before telling my ISP to update the DNS servers?

I am staying with the same ISP (Easynet) but having been 13 years with them on a shared server, I am just hesitating on the edge of the pool...

Just make sure you reupload with the domain name within network settings after propagation.

if you use a PSP they will need to propagate also so you may find that some psp emails/comfirmations will take an extra 24 hours to catch up.
