Website Migration

A: The website migration service offered by Internet Website Domain is totally free and involves moving all your files, databases and e–mails from your current hosting provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We’ll also update all the configuration settings necessary for your web sites to be completely functional on our state–of–the–art cloud hosting platform.Our techs are completely capable of moving any kind of site. With years of experience in this field, they are well–versed in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other widely used Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–made web application with numerous custom libraries is as easy as moving a simple WordPress weblog.

A: We strive to perform all website migrations as fast as possible. However, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are certain variables that you need to take into account – the very size of your website and the workload of our web site migration team, etc. We constantly try to implement each migration in less than 48 hours. With smaller sites, our team usually manages to finish in under 24 hours.

A: Yeah. We’ll require the name of the website that you’d like us to transfer. We’ll also require a means to log in to your current hosting account so that we can get the files associated with your site.

A: Client privacy is indeed one of our fundamental responsibilities – that’s why, both our payment transaction page and our Control Panel login page are protected with enterprise–class Secure Sockets Layer certificates. We employ safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative procedures to safeguard the data that we receive on the web. And we’ve got a very detailed and rigid Privacy Policy, which describes the types of information that we collect.

A: While we move your web site, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your old hosting provider. After the migration is complete, we will ensure that everything is working correctly and that the integrity of your data is not affected before informing you that the transfer is finished. Then we will explain to you how to transfer the domain name over to your hosting account with us and how to modify the DNS records.

A: While we transfer your web content, your web hosting provider won’t be aware of the migration at all. We won’t contact them in any way.

A: We support all Linux–driven web hosting platforms. Generally, if we can receive 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 creation platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
