Q: Why do I have to transfer my web site? What does website migration consist of?
A: The web site migration service on offer at WebDaytonaHosting is absolutely free of cost and involves transferring all your website files, databases and e–mails from your present provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We’ll also revise all the settings needed for your websites to be completely functional on our super–modern cloud hosting platform.Our techs are completely capable of moving just about any website. With years of work experience behind their backs, they are experts in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other commonly used Control Panels. For them, moving a custom web application with lots of custom libraries is as easy as transferring a simple WordPress weblog.

Q: How long will the website migration procedure take?
A: We strive to accomplish all web site migrations as fast as possible. Still, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are certain variables that you need to take into consideration – the actual size of your site and the workload of our web site migration staff, etc. We always try to implement each migration in under 48 hours. With less sizeable sites, our team typically manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: My personal privacy is crucial to me. What details do you need to have?
A: We’ll require the login details for your old web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the website’s name (domain name).
-
Q: I give you access to sensitive data. How can I be sure that you won’t misuse it?
A: Before we can begin the migration of your account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us will require that you to share basically the same information you have provided to your previous host. We also have a very rigorous Privacy Policy, which specifies how private info is tackled.
-
Q: Will there be any outage for my site?
A: Nah. Your website will continue to be accessible online during the migration. As soon as everything is completed on our end, we will inform you so that you can examine it and check for problems. If everything’s okay, all you will have to do is edit your domain’s DNS records.

Q: Will my old hosting provider need to do anything?
A: While we migrate your website content, your web hosting provider will not be aware of the migration at all. We will never touch base with them in any way.
-
Q: Does it matter what platform my present provider is using?
A: We support all Linux–powered web hosting platforms. Basically, if we can acquire access to your Control Panel, we’ll be able to migrate your site.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source website building platforms such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
