Website Migration

A: When your present hosting provider can no longer measure up to the needs of your site, or if you experience regular network downtime, or if you have to wait for hours for the help desk support staff to reply back to you, it may be a clever idea to change your provider, i.e. to migrate all the files for your websites as well as your databases from your current provider to your future provider. At Corporate Hosting Solutions, we are aware that this can be hard & time–consuming. That’s the reason why we will perform all that for you for free!Our skilled technical staff reps will transfer your website content from your current hosting provider to us. Our techs have got lots of experience migrating web sites and are able to take care of everything – from a common WordPress–driven weblog or Joomla^™ CMS–driven website, to an extremely elaborate, custom–made web app.

A: While we cannot give you a precise time window, because there are many variables, among them the size of the web files and databases, the physical location of the present host’s server, the complexity of your site and the present workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we will do our very best to transfer your site within 48 hours, and in some cases – within 24 hours (when the content is not large).

A: We will need the login details for your current web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the web site’s name (domain name).

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 security of the private data obtained from the clients. To accomplish this, we use technical security measures to avoid the loss, the misapplication, the alteration or the unauthorized disclosure of the private info under our control. The safety measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative methods to protect and secure the info that we receive on the web. When we ask users to provide financial info (for instance, a debit card number), this info is encoded using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technique.

A: Your site will continue to work exactly like it did before with your previous web hosting provider. Once we have completed the transfer, your web site will be configured to work on our system and we’ll alert you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will have to do is change the name server records pertaining to your domain. Your web site will be transferred to us without any downtime.

A: No. We will never contact your web hosting provider about anything at all. They won’t be aware of the website migration either.

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