Website Migration

A: When your current hosting provider can no longer satisfy the needs of your site, or when you face continuous downtime, or if you are forced to wait for hours for the help desk team to get back to you, it may be smart to swap your hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your sites along with your databases from your current provider to your future provider. At Online Pluto, we know that this can often be difficult & time–consuming. That is why we’ll do all that for you at no cost!Our practiced technical staff members will move your website content from your current web hosting provider to us. Our techs have a lot of experience with web site migration and are able to take care of anything – from a common WordPress–powered weblog or Joomla^™–driven website, to an extremely complex, custom–made application.

A: There are lots of aspects to consider – the overall amount of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the current workload of our web site migration experts, etc. That being said, we do try to implement all website migrations in a 48–hour period. Smaller–sized websites are transferred much faster – usually in under 24 hours.

A: Yeah. We will require the name of the web site that you wish us to transfer. We’ll also need a way to log in to your present hosting account so that we can get the files pertaining to your site.

A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the contract that we’ll have with you as a client. We’re committed to protecting the security of the private information gathered from the clients. To do this, we employ technical safety measures to avoid the loss, the misapplication, the modification or the unauthorized disclosure of the personal information under our control. The safety measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial methods to protect and secure the info that we collect on the Internet. When we ask customers to present financial information (for instance, a credit card number), this info is encoded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technique.

A: While we migrate your web site, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your former hosting provider. Once the migration is completed, we’ll ensure that everything is working properly and that the integrity of your content is not jeopardized prior to informing you that the transfer is complete. Then we’ll instruct you how to transfer the domain over to your hosting account with us and how to modify the DNS settings.

A: Nah. We’ll never get in touch with your web hosting provider about anything at all. They will not be aware of the website migration either.

A: Yep. We support all standard Linux–powered web hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–powered web hosting platforms, because we don’t offer Windows web hosting solutions ourselves.Furthermore, we don’t support proprietary site creation and administration user interfaces like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
