Website Migration

A: If your present web hosting provider can no longer fulfill the necessities of your web site, or when you undergo continual downtime, or if you are forced to wait for hours for the tech support staff to get back to you, it might be a good idea to change your hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your websites together with your databases from your present provider to your new provider. At Hostcentrix, we realize that this can be difficult & time–consuming. Because of this, we will accomplish all that for you at no cost!Our expert technical staff representatives will transfer your website content from your present hosting provider to us. Our techs have got plenty of experience migrating websites and are able to handle everything – from a traditional WordPress–powered weblog or Joomla^™–based web site, to a highly complex, custom–made web app.

A: While we can’t give you an exact time frame, since there are lots of variables, among them the size of the web files and databases, the location of the current host’s server, the complexity of your web site and the current workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we’ll give our very best to transfer your website within 48h, and in certain cases – within 24h (in case the website content is not large).

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

A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the agreement that we’ll have with you as a client. We’re devoted to safeguarding the safety of the private data obtained from the customers. To accomplish this, we employ technical security measures to prevent the loss, the misuse, the alteration or the unauthorized disclosure of the information under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative operations to protect and secure the info that we gather on the web. When we ask clients to present financial information (for example, a credit card number), this info is protected using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) technology.

A: Nope. Your web site will stay available online during the transfer. As soon as everything is completed on our end, we’ll notify you so that you can examine it and check for problems. If everything’s OK, all you will need to do is edit your domain’s DNS resource records.

A: Nah. Aside from your login credentials for the Control Panel, we will not require anything. We will never touch base with your hosting provider. They will not know anything about the migration either.

A: Yeah. We support all common Linux–driven hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–driven web hosting platforms, as we do not provide Windows hosting solutions ourselves.In addition, we do not support proprietary site creation and administration user interfaces like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
