Website Migration

A: If your present hosting provider can no longer answer the necessities of your web site, or if you undergo constant downtime, or if you are made to wait for hours for the support team to respond back to you, it might be a clever idea to switch your web hosting provider, i.e. to migrate all the files for your sites together with your databases from your current provider to your future provider. At Finternets Hosting, we are aware that this can often be hard & time–consuming. That’s the reason why we’ll accomplish all that for you for free!Our practiced technical staff representatives will move your site content from your present web hosting provider to us. Our techs have got a lot of experience with web site migration and can handle everything – from a typical WordPress–driven blog or Joomla^™ site, to an extremely complex, custom–made web app.

A: There are a lot of aspects to bear in mind – the overall number of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the present workload of our web site migration experts, etc. However, we do try to accomplish all website migrations in a 48–hour time frame. Smaller web sites are migrated much faster – typically within 24 hours.

A: We do not request any sensitive details. We’ll require, though, the login information for your current web hosting account as well as the name of the website that you want to move.

A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the contract that we’ll have with you as a customer. We are devoted to protecting the security of the private details gathered from the clients. To achieve that, we use technical safety measures to prevent the loss, the misuse, the alteration or the illegal disclosure of the personal info under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative procedures to safeguard and secure the data that we gather on the World Wide Web. When we request clients to supply financial info (for example, a debit card number), this info is shielded using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology.

A: Your website will work just like it did before with your previous hosting provider. As soon as we have finished the transfer, your web site will be configured to work on our platform and we’ll alert you to preview it. If it is working correctly, all you will need to do is change the name server records for your domain name. Your site will be transferred to us with no downtime.

A: Nope. Apart from your login info for the Control Panel, we will not require anything. We will never contact your web hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the migration either.

A: We support all Linux–driven web hosting platforms. In essence, if we can access your Control Panel, we will be able to transfer your website.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source web site creation platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
