Q: What does the web site migration service entail? Will my web site be secure?
A: The website migration service that our company is offering is free (within a certain limit). We’ll move your site(s) to our leading–edge cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from personal experience that switching hosting providers can lead to lost info and unwanted downtime. This is the reason why we will do all that for you at no cost!We’ve got highly professional administrators whose principal task is to make sure that your site performs precisely as it did on your former hosting platform. Our administrators are experts in transferring custom–built web sites, as well as web sites that are based on popular web applications such as Joomla™ and WordPress.

Q: How long will it take for my web site to be migrated over to your platform?
A: While we cannot give you an exact time interval, because there are lots 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 website and the present workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we’ll give our very best to move your site within 48 hours, and in certain cases – within 24 hours (if the website content is not very large).

Q: Do you require something from me before you start moving my site?
A: We don’t need any private info. We’ll need, however, the login info for your present hosting account along with the name of the website that you wish to transfer.

Q: The login info for my hosting account is delicate. How can I rely on you?
A: Before we can begin the transfer of your account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us will require that you to share practically the same details you have provided to your current web host. We’ve also got an extremely rigid Privacy Policy, which describes how personal info is used.

Q: Will there be any outage for my website?
A: While we transfer your website, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your former hosting provider. After the transfer is completed, we’ll make certain that everything is functioning correctly and that the integrity of your web content is not jeopardized before informing you that the migration is done. Then we will explain to you how to move the domain name over to your hosting account with us and how to change the DNS settings.

Q: Will my present web hosting provider need to provide any information/help?
A: While we move your website content, your hosting provider won’t be aware of the migration at all. We will never contact them in any way.

A: We support all Linux–based hosting platforms. Essentially, if we can get access to your Control Panel, we will be able to migrate your website.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source web site creation platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
