Website Migration
-
Q: What does the web site migration service involve? Will my web site be safe?
A: The website migration service that we are offering is free of cost (within a certain limit). We will transfer your web site(s) to our avant–garde cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from experience that swapping hosting providers can lead to lost information and unwanted network downtime. That’s the reason why we’ll do all that for you for free!We’ve got qualified administrators whose only assignment is to ensure that your website functions precisely as it did on your former web hosting platform. The administrators are well–versed in migrating custom–made web sites, as well as web sites that are based upon famous web apps such as WordPress and Joomla™.
-
Q: Just how long will the web site migration procedure take?
A: There are lots of variables to bear in mind – the total number of files, the size of the database, the complexity of the web site itself and the current workload of our web site migration experts, etc. Still, we do our best to perform all web site migrations in a 48–hour time period. Less sizeable sites are migrated faster – typically in less than 24 hours.
-
Q: Do you need something from me before you start transferring my website?
A: We do not request any private data. We’ll need, though, the login info for your current hosting account along with the name of the web site that you need to migrate.
-
Q: The login info for my hosting account is sensitive. How can I rely on you?
A: In order for us to start the migration of your account, you must already have an account with us. Opening an account with us requires that you to share pretty much the same information you have provided to your current web hosting provider. We’ve also got an extremely rigid Privacy Policy, which describes how sensitive information is tackled.
-
Q: Will there be any outage for my website?
A: Nah. Your site will stay accessible online during the transfer. As soon as everything is done on our end, we’ll let you know so that you can preview it and check for problems. If everything’s okay, all you will need to do is edit your domain name’s DNS resource records.
-
Q: Will my old web hosting provider have to do anything?
A: Nope. We’ll never get in touch with your web hosting provider about anything at all. They will not be aware of the web site migration either.
-
Q: Which web hosting providers can you migrate content from?
A: Yup. We support all conventional Linux–driven web hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–powered web hosting platforms, since we do not offer Windows web hosting solutions ourselves.We also don’t support proprietary website building and administration interfaces such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
