Website Migration

A: The website migration service offered by Hoster-Master is totally free and involves moving all your files, databases and emails from your current provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We will also fine–tune all the configuration settings necessary for your websites to be fully functional on our leading–edge cloud hosting platform.Our techs are completely capable of transferring any sort of site. With years of experience in this field, they are well–versed in the specificities of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other popular Control Panels. For them, moving a custom web app with plenty of custom libraries is as elementary as moving a simple WordPress weblog.

A: There are plenty of factors to take into consideration – the overall number of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the present workload of our web site migration experts, etc. Nevertheless, we do try to carry out all web site migrations in a 48–hour window. Less sizeable web sites are transferred faster – typically within 24 hours.

A: Yup. We’ll require the name of the site that you’d like us to move. We’ll also require a way to log in to your present hosting account so that we can get the files pertaining to your web site.

A: Before we can begin the transfer of your hosting account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us will require that you to share basically the same info you have given to your old web host. We also have an extremely strict Privacy Policy, which specifies how delicate information is used.

A: Your website will continue to work exactly like it did before with your old hosting provider. Once we have finished the transfer, your site will be configured to work on our system and we will alert you to preview it. If it is working correctly, all you will need to do is edit the name server records for your domain name. Your web site will be transferred to us without any downtime.

A: Nope. We’ll never touch base with your hosting provider about anything at all. They won’t be aware of the web site transfer either.

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