Website Migration

A: The website migration service available at Say WebHost Inc is totally free of charge and consists of transferring all your web files, databases and emails from your current web hosting provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We’ll also modify all the configuration settings required for your websites to be fully operational on our super–modern cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of moving any kind of web site. With years of work experience in the industry, they are well–versed in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other popular Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–built web app with a lot of custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a plain WordPress–based blog.

A: There are lots of variables to keep in mind – the total number of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the present workload of our website migration professionals, etc. Nevertheless, we do try to perform all web site migrations in a 48–hour time period. Smaller–sized sites are migrated faster – typically in under 24 hours.

A: We do not need any information that is sensitive. We will need, though, the login information for your current web hosting account and the name of the web site that you would like to migrate.

A: User privacy is truly one of our main concerns – this is why, both our payment transaction page and our Control Panel login page are secured with enterprise–class Secure Sockets Layer certificates. We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial operations to secure the data that we assemble on the web. And we’ve also got a very detailed and strict Privacy Policy, which specifies the types of information that we collect.

A: Your web site will work exactly like it did before with your previous web hosting provider. As soon as we have finished the transfer, your website will be configured to work on our web hosting platform and we’ll ask you to preview it. If it is functioning correctly, all you will have to do is edit the name server records pertaining to your domain. Your site will be transferred over to us without any downtime whatsoever.

A: While we transfer your website content, your hosting provider won’t be aware of the migration at all. We will not contact them in any way.

A: We can transfer your site from any hosting provider or any Linux–powered hosting platform on condition that we can acquire access to the Control Panel and there is File Transfer Protocol access available.The only websites that we can’t transfer are those based on closed–source software applications like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
