Website Migration
-
Q: What does the website migration service involve? Will my website be secure?
A: The web site migration service that we are offering is free of charge (to a certain extent). We’ll transfer your website(s) to our ultramodern cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from experience that swapping hosting providers can result in lost info and unnecessary downtime. That’s the reason why we’ll do all that for you for free!We’ve got highly professional administrators whose main task is to ensure that your web site functions exactly as it did on your previous hosting platform. The administrators are well–versed in transferring custom–made sites, as well as sites that are based upon famous web applications such as WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: Web site migration sounds like lots of work. Just how long does it take?
A: There are many aspects to consider – the overall amount of files, the size of the database, the complexity of the web site itself and the present workload of our web site migration experts, etc. Nonetheless, we do our very best to implement all website migrations within a 48–hour time period. Smaller–sized web sites are transferred much faster – typically in less than 24 hours.
-
Q: What info will I be asked to give to your Website Migration Department?
A: We do not need any information that is private. We will require, though, the login information for your present web hosting account as well as the name of the website that you wish to transfer.

Q: The login info for my hosting account is delicate. How can I trust you?
A: Customer privacy is indeed one of our principal concerns – this is why, both our payment transaction page and our Control Panel login page are secured with enterprise–class SSL certificates. We use security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative methods to secure the data that we assemble online. And we also have a very detailed and strict Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we gather.

Q: Will there be any downtime for my website?
A: While we transfer your web site, it will be available both in your hosting account with us and in your account with your previous web hosting provider. As soon as the transfer is done, we’ll make certain that everything is functioning properly and that the integrity of your web content is not jeopardized prior to notifying you that the transfer is complete. Then we will instruct you how to move the domain to your hosting account with us and how to change the DNS resource records.
-
Q: Will my current web hosting provider find out that I’m leaving them?
A: Nope. We’ll never touch base with your web hosting provider about anything. They won’t be aware of the website migration either.
-
Q: Does it matter what platform my present hosting provider is using?
A: Yup. We support all common Linux–based hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–powered web hosting platforms, because we do not offer Windows hosting services ourselves.In addition, we do not support proprietary website building and administration interfaces such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
