How do I change my website provider?

How do I change my website provider?

I'm using Angelfire now and would like to change to another provider but still keep my same domain name so that people can still find it.

1) Open an account with a new host.
2) Login to your domain registrar and point your domain name servers (DNS) to the new host's DNS.
3) Copy your website content to the new host.

Thanks.

Will that break the link to all the pages that seem to be stored on Google?

No. You will still be found at the same links. Your URL won't change at all.
