Website Migration

A: When your current hosting provider can no longer meet the needs of your web site, or if you undergo regular downtime, or if you have to wait for hours for the help desk support team to reply to you, it may be a clever idea to change your hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your sites along with your databases from your current provider to your new provider. At dancom, we realize that this can be hard and time–consuming. That is why we’ll do all that for you for free!Our experienced technical staff reps will transfer your site content from your present provider to us. Our techs have lots of experience with web site migration and are able to handle anything – from a traditional WordPress–powered blog or Joomla^™–driven site, to an extremely complex, custom–made app.

A: We strive to implement all website migrations as fast as possible. Nevertheless, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are different aspects that you have to consider – the mere size of your website and the workload of our website migration team, etc. We constantly try to perform each migration within 48 hours. With smaller sites, our staff typically manages to finish within 24 hours.

A: Yep. We will need to have the name of the web site that you want us to migrate. We will also need a means to access your current hosting account so that we can get the content pertaining to your web site.

A: Client privacy is indeed one of our fundamental priorities – because of this, both our payment page and our CP login page are secured with enterprise–class SSLs. We use safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative procedures to secure the details that we collect on the web. And we have a detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we collect.

A: Your website will continue to work just like it did before with your old hosting provider. When we are through with the migration, your web site will be configured to work on our system and we’ll ask you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will have to do is update the NS resource records corresponding to your domain. Your web site will be migrated over to us without any downtime whatsoever.

A: Nah. Apart from your login credentials for the Control Panel, we don’t require anything. We will never touch base with your web hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the migration either.

A: We support all Linux–powered hosting platforms. In essence, if we can access your Control Panel, we will be able to transfer your web site.The only platforms that we do not support are closed–source website building platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
