Website Migration

A: When your present hosting provider can no longer measure up to the demands of your site, or if you experience constant downtime, or if you are made to wait for hours for the client support team to reply back to you, it might be a clever idea to change your provider, i.e. to migrate all the files for your web sites as well as your databases from your current provider to your future provider. At WebHostGo, we realize that this can be difficult and time–consuming. That’s the reason why we’ll do all that for you for free!Our highly skilled technical staff members will move your site content from your current web hosting provider to us. Our techs have lots of experience with web site migration and can handle anything – from a traditional WordPress–based blog or Joomla^™–driven site, to a very complex, custom–built web application.

A: There are a lot of variables to bear in mind – the overall amount of web files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the current workload of our web site migration professionals, etc. However, we do our best to accomplish all web site migrations within a 48–hour period. Smaller–sized websites are migrated faster – typically in less than 24 hours.

A: We will need the login information for your old web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the web site’s name (domain name).

A: Client privacy is truly one of our principal responsibilities – that is why, both our payment page and our Control Panel login page are protected with enterprise–level digital certificates. We use security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative operations to safeguard the info that we obtain on the Internet. And we also have a detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which describes the types of information that we gather.

A: Your site will continue to work just like it did before with your old web hosting provider. As soon as we have completed the transfer, your site will be configured to work on our system and we will ask you to preview it. If it is working correctly, all you will have to do is change the NS resource records corresponding to your domain name. Your website will be migrated over to us with no downtime.

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

A: We support all Linux–based hosting platforms. Essentially, if we can obtain access to your Control Panel, we’ll be able to transfer your website.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source website management platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
