Website Migration

A: The web site migration service on offer at Hostrionics is absolutely free of cost and involves moving all your files, databases and emails from your present provider to your brand–new hosting account with us. We’ll also revise all the configuration settings needed for your websites to be completely operational on our leading–edge cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring any type of website. With years of work experience behind their backs, they’re experts in the inner workings of our web hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other popular Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–built web application with lots of custom libraries is as easy as transferring a plain WordPress weblog.

A: We try to accomplish all website migrations ASAP. However, we don’t have a set time frame for web site migrations. There are different variables that you need to take into consideration – the sheer size of your website and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We constantly strive to accomplish each migration within 48 hours. With less sizeable sites, our staff usually manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Opening an account with us requires that you to share practically the same info you have given to your current web hosting provider.

After that, we will instruct you how to move the domain name to your web hosting account with us and how to edit your DNS resource records.
