Website Migration

A: If your present hosting provider can no longer measure up to the needs of your site, or when you go through frequent network downtime, or if you are forced to wait for hours for the client service staff to respond back to you, it might be a smart idea to swap your hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your sites as well as your databases from your present provider to your future provider. At qmtglobalhosting, we know that this can often be hard and time–consuming. This is the reason why we’ll perform all that for you for free!Our highly trained technical staff members will transfer your site content from your present web hosting provider to us. Our technicians have a lot of experience migrating web sites and can take care of everything – from a typical WordPress–based weblog or Joomla^™ website, to a very elaborate, custom–built application.

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 website itself and the present workload of our website migration professionals, etc. Nevertheless, we do our very best to accomplish all website migrations in a 48–hour time window. Smaller–sized web sites are migrated much faster – usually within 24 hours.

A: Yep. We will require the name of the website that you want us to move. We’ll also require a way to log in to your current hosting account so that we can get the files associated with your web site.

A: Customer privacy is truly one of our greatest priorities – that is why, both our payment transaction page and our Control Panel login page are protected with enterprise–grade SSL certificates. We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial methods to protect the information that we receive on the Internet. And we’ve got a very detailed and rigid Privacy Policy, which specifies the types of information that we gather.

A: Nah. Your web site will stay visible online during the migration. Once everything is done on our end, we’ll inform you so that you can examine it and check for any problems. If everything is fine, all you will have to do is modify your domain name’s DNS resource records.

A: While we move your website content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the transfer at all. We won’t touch base with them in any way.

A: We support all Linux–based web hosting platforms. In essence, if we can gain access to your Control Panel, we will be able to migrate your web site.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source web site creation platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
