We’ll migrate your web site(s) to our enterprise–class cloud hosting platform without you needing to do anything. We know from experience that changing hosting providers can lead to lost information and undesirable downtime. For this reason, we’ll do all that for you at no cost!We’ve got proficient administrators whose only assignment is to make certain that your site works precisely as it did on your former hosting platform. The administrators are well–versed in migrating custom–made web sites, as well as web sites that are based upon well–known scripts like Joomla™ and WordPress.

Q: Just how long will the website migration procedure take?
A: There are a lot of variables to bear in mind – the overall number of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the web site itself and the current workload of our website migration professionals, etc. However, we do our best to carry out all web site migrations in a 48–hour time period. Smaller web sites are transferred faster – typically within 24 hours.

If everything is working correctly, all you will need to do is edit the NS resource records corresponding to your domain. Your site will be migrated over to us with no downtime whatsoever.
