Website Migration

A: The website migration service offered by 530WebHosting is completely free of cost and consists of transferring all your website files, databases and emails from your current provider to your new hosting account with us. We will also fine–tune all the settings necessary for your sites to be completely functional on our advanced cloud hosting platform.Our techs are completely capable of transferring any sort of site. With years of experience behind their backs, they’re experts in the specificities of our web hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other popular Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom app with a lot of custom libraries is as easy as transferring a simple WordPress weblog.

A: There are many variables to take into consideration – the total amount of web files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the present workload of our web site migration professionals, etc. Yet, we do our best to perform all web site migrations within a 48–hour window. Less sizeable websites are migrated faster – usually in under 24 hours.

A: We don’t need any personal info. We will require, though, the login information for your current hosting account as well as the name of the website that you wish to move.

A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the agreement that we will have with you as a customer. We’re committed to protecting the safety of the personal details gathered from the clients. To achieve that, we use technical security measures so as to avoid the loss, the misappropriation, the modification or the unauthorized leakage of the private data under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative methods to protect and secure the data that we receive on the World Wide Web. When we ask customers to submit financial info (such as a debit card number), this info is encoded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology.

A: While we move your site, it will be available both in your hosting account with us and in your account with your old hosting provider. After the migration is finished, we’ll make certain that everything is functioning properly and that the integrity of your web content is not affected before telling you that the transfer is complete. Then we’ll instruct you how to move the domain over to your hosting account with us and how to update your DNS records.

A: While we migrate your website content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the migration at all. We will not get in touch with them in any way.

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