Q: What does the website migration service consist of? Will my website be safe?

A: If your current web hosting provider can no longer fulfill the demands of your website, or if you undergo constant network downtime, or if you have to wait for hours for the help desk support team to reply to you, it may be a smart idea to change your hosting provider, i.e. to move all the files for your web sites together with your databases from your present provider to your future provider.

Q: How much time will it take for my site to be moved to your platform?

A: There are many factors to think about – the overall amount of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the present workload of our website migration experts, etc. Having said that, we do try to implement all web site migrations within a 48–hour period. Smaller–sized websites are migrated much faster – usually in under 24 hours.

Q: You will access sensitive info. How can I be sure that you won’t misuse it?

A: In order for us to start the migration of your web hosting account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us will require that you to share essentially the same information you have provided to your old host. We also have an extremely rigid Privacy Policy, which specifies how personal information is tackled.

Q: What about downtime? Will my site be unavailable?

A: Your website will continue to work exactly like it did before with your old web hosting provider. As soon as we have completed the transfer, your website will be configured to work on our platform and we’ll alert you to preview it. If everything is working properly, all you will have to do is change the name server records corresponding to your domain. Your website will be transferred to us without any downtime.
