We’ll move your web site(s) to our high–performance cloud hosting platform without you having to do anything. We know from experience that changing hosting providers can lead to lost data and undesirable network downtime. Because of this, we will do all that for you at no cost!We’ve got highly professional administrators whose chief assignment is to make sure that your website functions exactly as it did on your old web hosting platform. The administrators are well–versed in migrating custom–built websites, as well as websites that are based upon well–known web apps such as Joomla™ and WordPress.

Q: How long will it take for my site to be migrated to your platform?
A: There are many factors to consider – the overall amount of files, the size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the current workload of our website migration experts, etc. Nevertheless, we do our very best to perform all website migrations within a 48–hour time frame. Smaller web sites are transferred faster – usually in less than 24 hours.
