Website Migration

Q: What precisely does web site migration mean and what does it involve?
A: The website migration service that our company is offering is free (to a certain extent). We will transfer your web site(s) to our super–modern cloud hosting platform without you needing to do anything. We know from experience that changing hosting providers can result in lost info and undesired downtime. For this reason, we will perform all that for you for free!We’ve got knowledgeable administrators whose primary task is to make certain that your website works precisely as it did on your former web hosting platform. Our administrators are experts in migrating custom–built websites, as well as websites that are based on well–known applications like WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: How long will the web site migration procedure take?
A: While we can’t give you a precise ETA, since there are a lot of factors, among them the physical size of the web files and databases, the physical location of the current host’s server, the complexity of your web site and the current workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we will do our very best to migrate your site within 48 hours, and in certain cases – within 24 hours (in case the content is not large).

Q: My personal privacy concerns me. What data do you need to have?
A: We’ll require the login information for your old hosting provider’s Control Panel and the web site’s name (domain name).

Q: You will access sensitive data. How can I be sure that you won’t misuse it?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the agreement that we’ll have with you as a client. We’re committed to safeguarding the safety of the personal details collected from the customers. To accomplish that, we employ technical safety measures in order to avoid the loss, the misappropriation, the alteration or the illegal leakage of the private info under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative procedures to protect and secure the details that we acquire on the World Wide Web. When we request customers to provide financial info (such as a credit card number), this info is protected using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technology.

Q: Will my site be unavailable during the transfer?
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 problems. If everything’s fine, all you will have to do is update your domain name’s DNS records.

Q: Will my present hosting provider need to provide any information/assistance?
A: Nope. We’ll never get in touch with your hosting provider about anything at all. They won’t be aware of the website transfer either.

Q: Does it make a difference what platform my current hosting provider is using?
A: We can transfer your web site from any web hosting provider or any Linux–based hosting platform as long as we can obtain access to the Control Panel and there is File Transfer Protocol access available.The only websites that we are unable to migrate are those based on closed–source software apps like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
