Website Migration

A: The web site migration service available at Getya Hosting is completely free of cost and consists of moving all your files, databases and emails from your present hosting provider to your brand new hosting account with us. We will also modify all the configuration settings needed for your web sites to be completely operational on our ultramodern cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are fully capable of transferring any kind of site. With years of practical experience behind their backs, they are experts in the specificities of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other well–known Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–built application with numerous custom libraries is as easy as transferring a simple WordPress blog.

A: While we can’t give you an exact time interval, since there are plenty of variables, including the physical size of the web files and databases, the location of the present host’s server, the complexity of your web site and the present workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we’ll try our best to transfer your web site within 48 hours, and in some cases – within 24 hours (in case the website content is not large).

A: We do not request any personal info. We’ll require, however, the login info for your current hosting account and the name of the site that you wish to move.

A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the contract that we’ll have with you as a customer. We’re devoted to protecting the safety of the private information collected from the customers. For this purpose, we employ technical security measures to avoid the loss, the misuse, the alteration or the illegal leak of the information under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative methods to protect and secure the info that we collect on the World Wide Web. When we request customers to provide financial information (for instance, a credit card number), this info is masked using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology.

A: Nah. Your site will stay accessible online during the migration. Once everything is completed on our end, we’ll inform you so that you can examine it and check for any problems. If everything is OK, all you will need to do is change your domain’s DNS records.

A: Nah. We’ll never touch base with your hosting provider about anything. They won’t be aware of the web site migration either.

A: We can transfer your website from any web hosting provider or any Linux–powered web hosting platform as long as we can acquire access to the Control Panel and there is File Transfer Protocol access available.The only web sites that we cannot migrate are those based on closed–source software apps like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
