Website Migration
-
Q: Why should I move my website? What does web site migration involve?
A: The web site migration service offered by WebDomainiacs.com is entirely free of charge and consists of moving all your files, databases and e–mails from your current web hosting provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We will also fine–tune all the settings needed for your web sites to be fully functional on our leading–edge cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are fully capable of transferring just about any site. With years of experience in the industry, they are well–versed in the inner workings of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other famous Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–built app with numerous custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a simple WordPress blog.

Q: Website migration seems like a lot of work. How much time does it take?
A: There are plenty of variables to keep in mind – the overall amount of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the present workload of our web site migration professionals, etc. Even so, we do try to perform all website migrations within a 48–hour time frame. Smaller–sized web sites are migrated faster – typically in under 24 hours.
-
Q: Do you require something from me before you begin transferring my web site?
A: We’ll need the login information for your old web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the web site’s name (domain name).
-
Q: You will access delicate info. How can I be sure that you won’t abuse it?
A: User privacy is one of our paramount concerns – because of this, both our payment transaction page and our CP login page are secured with enterprise–level Secure Sockets Layer certificates. We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial operations to safeguard the details that we obtain on the World Wide Web. And we also have a detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which specifies the types of information that we collect.

Q: Will there be any outage for my web site?
A: Nope. Your website will continue to be accessible online during the migration. As soon as everything is completed on our end, we will inform you so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything is alright, all you will have to do is change your domain name’s DNS resource records.
-
Q: Will my present web hosting provider need to do anything?
A: Nope. Apart from your login details for the Control Panel, we do not require anything. We will never get in touch with your hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the transfer either.
-
Q: Does it make any difference what platform my present provider is using?
A: Yeah. We support all common Linux–powered web hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–driven web hosting platforms, as we do not offer Windows web hosting solutions ourselves.Additionally, we don’t support proprietary website building and management interfaces such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
