Website Migration
-
Q: What precisely does web site migration imply and what does it entail?
A: The web site migration service that we are offering is free of cost (within a certain limit). We will transfer your website(s) to our first–rate cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from experience that changing web hosting providers can result in lost data and unwanted downtime. This is why we’ll do all that for you at no cost!We have professional administrators whose chief task is to ensure that your web site works precisely as it did on your old hosting platform. The administrators are experts in migrating custom–built web sites, as well as web sites that are based upon well–known applications like WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: How much time will it take for my website to be moved over to your platform?
A: There are lots of factors to consider – the total amount of web files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the present workload of our web site migration professionals, etc. That said, we do our best to perform all web site migrations in a 48–hour window. Smaller–sized web sites are migrated faster – usually in less than 24 hours.
-
Q: Do you need anything from me before you start transferring my web site?
A: We don’t need any information that is personal. We will need, though, the login info for your old web hosting account as well as the name of the web site that you wish to transfer.

Q: The login details for my hosting account are delicate. How can I trust you?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the contract that we will have with you as a customer. We’re committed to safeguarding the safety of the private details gathered from the customers. To accomplish that, we use technical safety measures so as to avoid the loss, the misuse, the modification or the unlawful leak of the information under our control. The security measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative operations to protect and secure the data that we collect on the Internet. When we request customers to supply financial info (for example, a debit card number), this info is shielded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology.
-
Q: Will there be any outage for my website?
A: Your site will continue to work exactly like it did before with your previous hosting provider. After we have finished the migration, your site will be configured to work on our system and we will alert you to preview it. If it is working correctly, all you will have to do is edit the name server resource records pertaining to your domain name. Your site will be transferred to us with no downtime.
-
Q: Will my present hosting provider have to do anything?
A: While we move your web content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the migration at all. We will never get in touch with them in any way.
-
Q: Which hosting platforms do you support?
A: We can transfer your site from any web hosting provider or any Linux–based hosting platform so long as we can gain access to the Control Panel and there’s File Transfer Protocol access available.The only websites that we’re unable to transfer are the ones based on closed–source software apps like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
