Website Migration
-
Q: What does the website migration service involve? Will my website be secure?
A: The web site migration service that our company is offering is free of cost (within a certain limit). We’ll transfer your site(s) to our next–generation cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from personal experience that switching hosting providers can lead to lost information and undesired network downtime. That is the reason why we will do all that for you for free!We have proficient administrators whose chief job is to make certain that your site functions exactly as it did on your old hosting platform. Our administrators are well–versed in migrating custom–built websites, as well as websites that are based upon popular apps like WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: Just how long will it take for my web site to be moved over to your platform?
A: We try to carry out all website migrations ASAP. Even so, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are certain variables that you need to take into account – the actual size of your site and the workload of our web site migration team, etc. We constantly strive to implement each migration within 48 hours. With smaller websites, our team usually manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: What info will I be asked to provide to your Website Migration Department?
A: We’ll need the login information for your current web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the website’s name (domain name).
-
Q: The login info for my hosting account is sensitive. How can I trust you?
A: User privacy is truly one of our principal priorities – that is why, both our payment transaction page and our CP login page are protected with enterprise–class SSL certificates. We use security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative operations to safeguard the data that we receive on the web. And we’ve also got a detailed and rigid Privacy Policy, which specifies the types of information that we collect.

Q: Will there be any outage for my site?
A: While we move your website, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your former hosting provider. When the migration is complete, we’ll make certain that everything is functioning correctly and that the integrity of your web content is not jeopardized prior to informing you that the migration is complete. After that, we will tell you how to transfer the domain over to your web hosting account with us and how to edit your DNS resource records.
-
Q: Will my present hosting provider need to do anything?
A: No. Apart from your login info for the Control Panel, we don’t need anything. We will never get in touch with your hosting provider. They will not know anything about the migration either.
-
Q: Does it matter what platform my current provider is using?
A: Yep. We support all standard Linux–powered hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–based web hosting platforms, because we don’t provide Windows hosting solutions ourselves.We also don’t support proprietary web site creation and administration interfaces such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
