Website Migration
-
Q: What precisely does web site migration mean and what does it involve?
A: The web site migration service that we are offering is free of charge (to a certain extent). We’ll move your website(s) to our top–of–the–line cloud hosting platform without you needing to do anything. We know from experience that changing web hosting providers can result in lost data and undesirable network downtime. That is the reason why we’ll perform all that for you for free!We have skillful administrators whose sole task is to ensure that your web site works precisely as it did on your old hosting platform. Our administrators are experts in transferring custom–made web sites, as well as web sites that are based upon famous apps such as WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: Just how long will it take for my site to be migrated to your platform?
A: We try to implement all web site migrations ASAP. Nevertheless, we don’t have a fixed time frame for web site migrations. There are certain factors that you need to take into consideration – the very size of your web site and the workload of our website migration team, etc. We always try to perform each migration in less than 48 hours. With less sizeable sites, our team typically manages to finish within 24 hours.

Q: My privacy is essential for me. What info do you need?
A: We do not collect any information that is sensitive. We’ll require, though, the login info for your present web hosting account along with the name of the web site that you wish to migrate.
-
Q: You will access delicate info. How can I be sure that you won’t abuse it?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the agreement that we will have with you as a client. We are devoted to protecting the safety of the private information collected from the customers. To do this, we use technical safety measures to avoid the loss, the misapplication, the modification or the illegal leakage of the private details under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative operations to protect and secure the info that we acquire on the World Wide Web. When we ask clients to submit financial info (for example, a credit card number), this info is encoded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption method.
-
Q: Will my web site be unavailable during the transfer?
A: Nope. Your site will remain available online during the transfer. Once everything is completed on our end, we will tell you so that you can examine it and check for problems. If everything is okay, all you will have to do is edit your domain name’s DNS settings.
-
Q: Will my current web hosting provider need to do anything?
A: While we migrate your content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the transfer at all. We will never touch base with them in any way.
-
Q: Does it make any difference what platform my current hosting provider is using?
A: Yup. We support all conventional Linux–powered hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–powered hosting platforms, because we do not provide Windows hosting solutions ourselves.We also do not support proprietary web site building and administration tools like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
