Q: Why should I move my web site? What does website migration entail?
A: The website migration service available at seogex is completely free and consists of transferring all your website files, databases and emails from your present hosting provider to your new hosting account with us. We will also modify all the settings necessary for your websites to be completely operational on our ultra–modern cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring any type of web site. With years of experience behind their backs, they are well–versed in the specificities of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other famous Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–built app with multiple custom libraries is as elementary as moving a simple WordPress blog.

Q: Just how long will the website migration process take?
A: We strive to accomplish all website migrations as quickly as possible. Nevertheless, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are certain factors that you need to consider – the very size of your web site and the workload of our web site migration staff, etc. We always try to carry out each migration in under 48 hours. With smaller sites, our team typically manages to finish in under 24 hours.

Q: What data will I be required to provide to your Website Migration Department?
A: We don’t need any information that is private. We will need, though, the login info for your old web hosting account along with the name of the web site that you’d like to transfer.
-
Q: My present hosting account has sensitive data inside. How can I rely on you?
A: Before we can begin the transfer of your account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us requires that you to disclose more or less the same details you have provided to your present web host. We also have a very rigorous Privacy Policy, which specifies how personal information is handled.

Q: Will there be any outage for my website?
A: Nope. Your web site will continue to be available online during the migration. Once everything is done on our end, we will tell you so that you can examine it and check for any problems. If everything’s okay, all you will need to do is update your domain name’s DNS records.

Q: Will my present web hosting provider have to do anything?
A: No. We will never touch base with your web hosting provider about anything at all. They won’t be aware of the web site migration either.
-
Q: Which web hosting providers can you migrate data from?
A: We can migrate your site from any hosting provider or any Linux–powered web hosting platform as long as we can acquire access to the Control Panel and there is File Transfer Protocol access available.The only sites that we are unable to transfer are those based on closed–source software applications like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
