Website Migration

Q: Why do I need to transfer my website? What does web site migration involve?
A: The website migration service that we are offering is free of cost (to a certain extent). We’ll migrate your website(s) to our ultra–modern cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from experience that swapping hosting providers can lead to lost information and unnecessary network downtime. For this reason, we’ll perform all that for you for free!We have highly knowledgeable administrators whose primary responsibility is to make certain that your site works 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 like Joomla™ and WordPress.

Q: How much time will the web site migration process take?
A: There are lots of aspects to think about – the overall amount of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the present workload of our website migration experts, etc. Nevertheless, we do our very best to accomplish all web site migrations in a 48–hour window. Smaller sites are migrated faster – typically in less than 24 hours.

Q: Do you require anything from me before you begin transferring my site?
A: We do not request any personal details. We’ll need, though, the login information for your present web hosting account and the name of the web site that you’d like to transfer.

Q: My current hosting account has sensitive data inside. How can I trust you?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the contract that we will have with you as a customer. We’re dedicated to protecting the safety of the personal details collected from the clients. To achieve this, we use technical security measures to prevent the loss, the misapplication, the alteration or the unlawful disclosure of the information under our control. The safety measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative methods to protect and secure the information that we acquire on the Internet. When we request customers to provide financial info (for example, a credit card number), this info is encoded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technique.

Q: Will there be any outage for my website?
A: No. Your site will remain reachable online during the migration. As soon as everything is done on our end, we’ll inform you so that you can examine it and check for any problems. If everything’s alright, all you will have to do is change your domain name’s DNS settings.

Q: Will my old web hosting provider need to do anything?
A: While we move your website content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the transfer at all. We won’t get in touch with them in any way.

Q: Which web hosting platforms do you support?
A: Yes. We support all regular Linux–driven web hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–powered hosting platforms, as we don’t provide Windows hosting solutions ourselves.In addition, we don’t support proprietary site building and administration tools like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
