Website Migration

A: The web site migration service on offer at Cheap Web Space is entirely free of cost and involves transferring all your website files, databases and emails from your present provider to your new hosting account with us. We’ll also update all the settings required for your sites to be completely functional on our ultramodern cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are completely capable of transferring just about any website. With years of work experience behind their backs, they’re experts in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other famous Control Panels. For them, moving a custom application with many custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a plain WordPress–based weblog.

A: There are lots of aspects to take into consideration – the total number of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the current workload of our website migration experts, etc. Nevertheless, we do our very best to accomplish all web site migrations in a 48–hour time frame. Smaller–sized websites are transferred faster – usually in less than 24 hours.

A: Yeah. We will need to have the name of the site that you wish us to transfer. We’ll also require a way to log in to your present hosting account so that we can get the content associated with your web site.

A: Customer privacy is indeed one of our principal concerns – this is why, both our payment transaction page and our Control Panel login page are protected with enterprise–class SSL certificates. We employ safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative operations to secure the information that we collect on the Internet. And we have a detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we gather.

A: While we migrate your site, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your previous web hosting provider. After the migration is over, we will make sure that everything is working correctly and that the integrity of your content is not jeopardized prior to informing you that the transfer is complete. After that, we’ll instruct you how to transfer the domain name to your web hosting account with us and how to modify your DNS resource records.

A: No. We will never get in touch with your web hosting provider about anything. They will not be aware of the web site transfer either.

A: We can transfer your website from any hosting provider or any Linux–powered hosting platform provided that we can gain access to the Control Panel and there’s File Transfer Protocol access available.The only web sites that we are unable to transfer are those based on closed–source software applications like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
