Website Migration
-
Q: What does the web site migration service consist of? Will my web site be safe?
A: The web site migration service that our company is offering is free (within a certain limit). We will migrate your web site(s) to our super–modern cloud hosting platform without you needing to do anything. We know from experience that swapping hosting providers can result in lost information and unnecessary network downtime. Because of this, we will perform all that for you for free!We have highly proficient administrators whose sole task is to ensure that your web site works precisely as it did on your old web hosting platform. Our administrators are well–versed in transferring custom–built websites, as well as websites that are based upon well–known scripts like Joomla™ and WordPress.

Q: Website migration sounds like lots of work. Just how long will it take?
A: There are plenty of variables to think about – the total number of web files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the web site itself and the current workload of our website migration experts, etc. Nevertheless, we do our very best to carry out all web site migrations in a 48–hour time frame. Smaller–sized web sites are transferred faster – usually in less than 24 hours.

Q: My personal privacy is important to me. What data do you need to have?
A: We will require the login details for your old web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the site’s name (domain name).
-
Q: I give you access to sensitive info. How can I be sure that you won’t abuse it?
A: User privacy is among our principal concerns – that’s why, both our payment page and our Control Panel login page are secured with enterprise–grade Secure Sockets Layer certificates. We use security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative methods to safeguard the data that we obtain online. And we’ve also got a very detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we gather.

Q: What about downtime? Will my site be unavailable?
A: Your website will work exactly like it did before with your old hosting provider. When we are done with the transfer, your site will be configured to work on our web hosting platform and we’ll ask you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will have to do is modify the NS resource records for your domain. Your site will be migrated to us without any downtime.
-
Q: Will my current hosting provider learn that I’m leaving them?
A: Nope. Aside from your login credentials for the Control Panel, we don’t require anything. We will never contact your web hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the migration either.
-
Q: Which web hosting platforms do you support?
A: We can migrate your site from any web hosting provider or any Linux–powered web hosting platform given that we can gain access to the Control Panel and there’s FTP access available.The only websites that we can’t migrate are the ones based on closed–source software apps such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
