Q: How long will the website migration process take?
A: We try to accomplish all web site migrations as fast as possible. Even so, we don’t have a fixed time frame for website migrations. There are various elements that you need to take into account – the mere size of your website and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We constantly try to perform each migration in under 48 hours. With smaller–sized sites, our team typically manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: What details will I be required to give to your Website Migration Department?
A: We will require the login details for your current web hosting provider’s Control Panel and the web site’s name (domain name).

Q: The login details for my hosting account are delicate. How can I rely on you?
A: In order for us to begin the migration of your hosting account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us requires that you to share more or less the same information you have provided to your previous hosting provider. We’ve also got an extremely rigid Privacy Policy, which describes how delicate info is handled.

Q: Will my website be unavailable during the migration?
A: Your web site will work just like it did before with your old web hosting provider. After we have finished the transfer, your website will be configured to work on our platform and we will ask you to preview it. If it is working properly, all you will need to do is edit the NS records corresponding to your domain. Your site will be migrated over to us without any downtime.

A: We support all Linux–based web hosting platforms. Fundamentally, if we can gain access to your Control Panel, we’ll be able to transfer your website.The only platforms that we do not support are closed–source website building platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
