Website Migration

A: The web site migration service available at ServiceBlitz is totally free and involves transferring all your files, databases and e–mails from your current hosting provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We will also edit all the configuration settings necessary for your websites to be fully functional on our super–modern cloud hosting platform.Our techs are completely capable of moving any type of site. With years of practical experience in this field, they’re experts in the specificities of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other widely used Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–made application with lots of custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a plain WordPress–based weblog.

A: There are many aspects to take into account – the total number of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the present workload of our web site migration professionals, etc. Having said that, we do try to carry out all website migrations within a 48–hour window. Smaller sites are transferred faster – typically in less than 24 hours.

A: Yep. We will need the name of the website that you wish us to transfer. We will also need a means to log in to your present web hosting account so that we can get the content associated with your web site.

A: Client privacy is truly one of our top responsibilities – for this reason, both our payment transaction page and our CP login page are protected with enterprise–class SSL certificates. We use safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial operations to protect the data that we assemble on the web. And we’ve got a detailed and rigorous 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 hosting provider. As soon as we have completed the migration, your web site will be configured to work on our web hosting platform and we will ask you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will need to do is change the name server resource records for your domain. Your web site will be transferred to us with no downtime whatsoever.

A: Nope. Apart from your login details for the Control Panel, we will not require anything. We’ll never touch base with your web hosting provider. They will not know anything about the migration either.

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