Website Migration

A: When your present web hosting provider can no longer match the needs of your website, or if you go through continual downtime, or if you are made to wait for hours for the support team to reply back to you, it may be a smart idea to swap your web hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your sites together with your databases from your present provider to your future provider. At Eagleprohost.com, we realize that this can often be hard & time–consuming. Because of this, we’ll perform all that for you for free!Our capable technical team representatives will move your site content from your present hosting provider to us. Our technicians have a lot of experience migrating websites and are able to handle everything – from a customary WordPress–driven blog or Joomla^™ CMS–driven site, to a very elaborate, custom–made web application.

A: We try to perform all web site migrations ASAP. Yet, we don’t have a fixed time frame for website migrations. There are several factors that you have to take into consideration – the very size of your site and the workload of our website migration team, etc. We constantly strive to accomplish each migration in under 48 hours. With smaller–sized web sites, our team typically manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

A: We don’t need any private data. We will require, however, the login information for your old hosting account along with the name of the website that you wish to transfer.

A: Client privacy is indeed one of our main priorities – this is why, both our payment page and our CP login page are protected with enterprise–level SSLs. We use security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial procedures to secure the data that we gather online. And we’ve got a detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which describes the types of information that we collect.

A: Your web site will work exactly like it did before with your old hosting provider. After we have completed the migration, your site will be configured to work on our platform and we will ask you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will need to do is modify the name server records associated with your domain. Your web site will be migrated to us with no downtime.

A: No. We’ll never touch base with your hosting provider about anything. They won’t be aware of the web site transfer either.

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