Website Migration
-
Q: What exactly does web site migration mean and what does it include?
A: The website migration service on offer at Parked24 is completely free of charge and involves moving all your files, databases and emails from your present hosting provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We will also modify all the settings required for your web sites to be completely functional on our advanced cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring just about any web site. With years of practical experience in the industry, they are well–versed in the inner workings of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other widely used Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–made web app with many custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a plain WordPress weblog.

Q: Just how long will the web site migration procedure take?
A: We strive to carry out all website migrations as quickly as possible. Still, we do not have a fixed time frame for web site migrations. There are various things that you need to take into consideration – the actual size of your site and the workload of our website migration team, etc. We always strive to accomplish each migration in under 48 hours. With smaller web sites, our staff typically manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: What info will I be asked to provide to your Website Migration Department?
A: We do not collect any sensitive data. We’ll require, though, the login info for your present web hosting account along with the name of the web site that you need to transfer.
-
Q: My present hosting account has delicate info inside. How can I trust you?
A: In order for us to start the transfer of your account, you must already have an account with us. Opening an account with us requires that you to disclose precisely the same info you have given to your present web hosting provider. We’ve also got a very rigid Privacy Policy, which describes how personal info is used.
-
Q: Will there be any outage for my web site?
A: No. Your web site will remain visible online during the migration. Once everything is completed on our end, we will inform you so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything is okay, all you will have to do is edit your domain’s DNS resource records.
-
Q: Will my current web hosting provider discover that I’m leaving them?
A: Nah. We’ll never contact your web hosting provider about anything at all. They will not be aware of the website migration either.
-
Q: Does it matter what platform my present hosting provider is using?
A: We support all Linux–based web hosting platforms. Fundamentally, if we can obtain access to your Control Panel, we will be able to transfer your website.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source web site management platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
