Website Migration

A: The web site migration service provided by New York Cheap Hosting is entirely free and consists of transferring all your web files, databases and e–mails from your present hosting provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We will also edit all the settings necessary for your sites to be fully functional on our innovative cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring any sort of web site. With years of experience behind their backs, they are experts in the inner workings of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other widely used Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–made app with numerous custom libraries is as easy as transferring a simple WordPress–based weblog.

A: There are a lot of variables to bear in mind – the total amount of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the present workload of our website migration experts, etc. Nevertheless, we do try to carry out all website migrations in a 48–hour window. Smaller websites are transferred much faster – typically in less than 24 hours.

A: We don’t need any sensitive info. We’ll require, however, the login information for your current hosting account along with the name of the web site that you’d like to transfer.

We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial methods to secure the information that we accumulate on the World Wide Web. And we’ve also got a detailed and rigid Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we gather.

A: No. Your website will continue to be accessible online during the transfer. As soon as everything is completed on our end, we will notify you so that you can examine it and check for problems. If everything’s alright, all you will have to do is edit your domain’s DNS resource records.
