We will transfer your site(s) to our high–performance cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from personal experience that changing hosting providers can lead to lost data and undesirable downtime. Because of this, we will accomplish all that for you at no cost!We’ve got highly competent administrators whose sole task is to make sure that your web site works 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 upon popular scripts like WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: Web site migration seems like lots of work. How long does it take?
A: We try to accomplish all website migrations ASAP. Still, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are several facets that you need to consider – the sheer size of your site and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We constantly strive to accomplish each migration in under 48 hours. With smaller websites, our team usually manages to finish in under 24 hours.

Q: My privacy is vital to me. What info do you require?
A: We’ll need the login information for your current web hosting provider’s Control Panel and the site’s name (domain name).
-
Q: My present web hosting account has sensitive info inside. How can I trust you?
A: Before we can begin the transfer of your account, you must already have an account with us. Opening an account with us will require that you to share basically the same details you have provided to your old web host. We’ve also got a very rigorous Privacy Policy, which describes how sensitive data is handled.

Q: Will my site be unavailable during the transfer?
A: Your site will work exactly like it did before with your previous web hosting provider. When we have finished the transfer, your site will be configured to work on our hosting platform and we will ask you to preview it. If everything is functioning correctly, all you will have to do is modify the NS records pertaining to your domain name. Your web site will be migrated to us with no downtime.

Q: Will my present hosting provider know that I am leaving them?
A: Nope. Aside from your login credentials for the Control Panel, we will not need anything. We will never contact your hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the migration either.

Q: Which hosting providers can you transfer website content from?
A: We support all Linux–based web hosting platforms. Generally, if we can gain access to your Control Panel, we will be able to migrate your website.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source site building platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
