Website Migration

A: The web site migration service offered by Domain Name Hostmaster is completely free of cost and involves moving all your files, databases and e–mails from your present hosting provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We will also update all the settings required for your web sites to be completely operational on our advanced cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring any sort of web site. With years of work experience in the industry, they are well–versed in the specificities of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other well–known Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–built app with a lot of custom libraries is as elementary as moving a plain WordPress–based weblog.

A: We strive to carry out all web site migrations as fast as possible. However, we don’t have a fixed time frame for web site migrations. There are several facets that you have to take into consideration – the mere size of your web site and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We constantly try to implement each migration in less than 48 hours. With smaller sites, our team usually manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

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

A: User privacy is among our paramount priorities – that’s why, both our payment page and our Control Panel login page are secured with enterprise–grade SSLs. We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative operations to secure the information that we receive online. And we have a very detailed and strict Privacy Policy, which describes the types of information that we collect.

A: Your web site will work exactly like it did before with your previous hosting provider. As soon as we have finished the transfer, your website will be configured to work on our web hosting platform and we will ask you to preview it. If it is working properly, all you will have to do is modify the name server resource records corresponding to your domain. Your web site will be transferred over to us with no downtime.

A: Nope. We’ll never get in touch with your hosting provider about anything. They will not be aware of the web site migration either.

A: We support all Linux–based hosting platforms. Essentially, if we can receive access to your Control Panel, we’ll be able to transfer your web site.The only platforms that we do not support are closed–source web site building platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
