Website Migration

A: The web site migration service offered by Best Website Hosting Service is totally free and consists of moving all your web files, databases and emails from your current web hosting provider to your brand new web hosting account with us. We’ll also modify all the configuration settings required for your web sites to be fully operational on our ultra–modern cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are fully capable of moving any type of website. With years of work experience in the industry, they’re experts in the inner workings of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other widely used Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–made web app with lots of custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a simple WordPress weblog.

A: While we can’t give you an exact ETA, because there are many factors, including the size of the web files and databases, the location of the present host’s server, the complexity of your website and the present workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we will give our best to move your website within 48h, and in certain cases – within 24h (if the website content is not very large).

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

A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the agreement that we’ll have with you as a customer. We’re devoted to protecting the safety of the private information obtained from the customers. To achieve this, we use technical safety measures to prevent the loss, the abuse, the modification or the illegal leakage of the personal info under our control. The safety measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative procedures to protect and secure the information that we collect online. When we ask users to provide financial info (such as a debit card number), this info is masked using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption method.

A: Your website will work just like it did before with your former web hosting provider. When we have completed the transfer, your website will be configured to work on our web hosting platform and we will alert you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will have to do is update the name server resource records corresponding to your domain. Your web site will be migrated over to us without any downtime whatsoever.

A: Nope. Aside from your login details for the Control Panel, we do not need anything. We will never contact your web hosting provider. They will not know anything about the migration either.

A: We support all Linux–based hosting platforms. In essence, if we can get access to your Control Panel, we will be able to migrate your website.The only platforms that we do not support are closed–source site building platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
