Website Migration

A: When your current hosting provider can no longer meet the requirements of your web site, or if you experience frequent downtime, or if you have to wait for hours for the client care team to reply to you, it might be a clever idea to swap your provider, i.e. to migrate all the files for your web sites as well as your databases from your current provider to your new provider. At WebsiteHosting.bond, we realize that this can be hard & time–consuming. This is the reason why we will accomplish all that for you for free!Our highly accomplished technical staff members will transfer your site content from your present hosting provider to us. Our technicians have lots of experience migrating websites and are able to handle anything – from a common WordPress–based weblog or Joomla^™–based website, to a very elaborate, custom–made web application.

A: While we cannot give you an exact time interval, because there are many factors, among them the 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 do our best to transfer your website within 48h, and in certain cases – within 24h (in case the website content is not very large).

A: Yep. We’ll require the name of the web site that you’d like us to transfer. We’ll also require a way to log in to your current hosting account so that we can get the content pertaining to your website.

A: User privacy is indeed one of our primary priorities – that’s why, both our payment transaction page and our Control Panel login page are protected with enterprise–level SSL certificates. We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative operations to safeguard the info that we receive online. And we also have a detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we gather.

A: While we migrate your website, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your previous web hosting provider. Once the transfer is completed, we’ll make certain that everything is working properly and that the integrity of your content is not affected prior to notifying you that the migration is complete. Then we’ll instruct you how to transfer the domain over to your hosting account with us and how to change the DNS resource records.

A: Nope. Apart from your login credentials for the Control Panel, we do not require anything. We’ll never touch base with your web hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the migration either.

A: We can migrate your site from any web hosting provider or any Linux–based web hosting platform as long as we can obtain access to the Control Panel and there is FTP access available.The only web sites that we can’t transfer are the ones based on closed–source software apps such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
