Website Migration

A: The website migration service available at MurnHost is absolutely free and consists of moving all your files, databases and emails from your current web hosting provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We will also revise all the configuration settings required for your web sites to be completely operational on our ultra–modern cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are completely capable of moving just about any web site. With years of work experience behind their backs, they are experts in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other widely used Control Panels. For them, moving a custom web application with plenty of custom libraries is as elementary as moving a simple WordPress blog.

A: While we can’t give you a precise time window, because there are many variables, including the size of the web files and databases, the physical location of the present host’s server, the complexity of your site and the current workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we will do our very best to migrate your website within 48 hours, and in some cases – within 24 hours (when the website content is not very large).

A: Yup. We’ll need the name of the website that you wish us to move. We’ll also require a means to access your present web hosting account so that we can get the content pertaining to your web site.

A: Client privacy is indeed one of our main concerns – that’s why, both our payment page and our CP login page are protected with enterprise–level SSLs. We employ security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial procedures to secure the data that we receive on the World Wide Web. And we have a very detailed and strict Privacy Policy, which specifies the types of information that we gather.

A: Your site will continue to work exactly like it did before with your former web hosting provider. Once we are through with the transfer, your website will be configured to work on our system and we will alert you to preview it. If it is functioning properly, all you will need to do is edit the name server resource records corresponding to your domain. Your web site will be migrated to us without any downtime.

A: No. We’ll never touch base with your web hosting provider about anything. They won’t be aware of the website migration either.

A: We support all Linux–based web hosting platforms. Fundamentally, if we can get access to your Control Panel, we’ll be able to migrate your site.The only platforms that we do not support are closed–source site building platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
