if your moving to an other server, backup your database.

and add your database to the new domain. and transfer all files from your current host ot the new one

I know. But after I am backing up the database on myphpadmin, then how can I restore it to the new database?

goto sql commands, then there is a little box that let's you add a local file.

add the sql backup there

then run it :)
