Q: Why do I have to move my web site? What does web site migration involve?
A: The website migration service that our company is offering is free of cost (to a certain extent). We will migrate your website(s) to our ultra–modern cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from experience that switching hosting providers can result in lost data and unnecessary network downtime. That’s why we will do all that for you for free!We’ve got highly qualified administrators whose only task is to make certain that your website performs exactly as it did on your previous web hosting platform. The administrators are experts in transferring custom–built web sites, as well as web sites that are based on famous apps such as WordPress and Joomla™.

Q: Just how long will it take for my website to be migrated over to your platform?
A: We strive to accomplish all web site migrations as fast as possible. Yet, we do not have a fixed time frame for website migrations. There are various elements that you need to consider – the actual size of your website and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We constantly try to accomplish each migration within 48 hours. With less sizeable web sites, our team typically manages to finish within 24 hours.

Q: What data will I need to provide to your Website Migration Department?
A: We don’t require any information that is private. We will need, however, the login info for your present web hosting account and the name of the website that you wish to transfer.

Q: You will access delicate data. How can I be sure that you won’t abuse it?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the agreement that we’ll have with you as a customer. We are devoted to safeguarding the safety of the personal details collected from the clients. To do that, we use technical security measures to prevent the loss, the misuse, the modification or the unauthorized leak of the private information under our control. The security measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial operations to protect and secure the data that we accumulate on the web. When we request clients to present financial info (for example, a credit card number), this info is masked using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology.

Q: Will there be any downtime for my web site?
A: While we migrate your website, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your former web hosting provider. As soon as the transfer is complete, we’ll make sure that everything is working properly and that the integrity of your web content is not jeopardized prior to notifying you that the transfer is done. After that, we’ll explain to you how to transfer the domain to your web hosting account with us and how to modify your DNS settings.

Q: Will my present web hosting provider have to do anything?
A: No. Apart from your login info for the Control Panel, we do not need anything. We will never get in touch with your hosting provider. They will not know anything about the migration either.

Q: Which web hosting providers can you transfer web content from?
A: We support all Linux–powered web hosting platforms. Essentially, if we can get access to your Control Panel, we will be able to transfer your web site.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source site management platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
