Website Migration
-
Q: What precisely does website migration mean and what does it entail?
A: The web site migration service on offer at Tusitiohosting is completely free of cost and involves moving all your web files, databases and e–mails from your current provider to your new web hosting account with us. We’ll also fine–tune all the configuration settings required for your websites to be completely functional on our next–generation cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of moving any type of site. With years of experience in this field, they are well–versed in the inner workings of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other commonly used Control Panels. For them, moving a custom web app with plenty of custom libraries is as easy as moving a plain WordPress weblog.

Q: How much time will the web site migration procedure take?
A: We try to carry out all web site migrations as quickly as possible. Still, we do not have a fixed time frame for website migrations. There are different things that you have to consider – the sheer size of your web site and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We always strive to accomplish each migration in under 48 hours. With less sizeable websites, our staff typically manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: My personal privacy is vital to me. What info do you need?
A: We do not need any sensitive data. We’ll need, though, the login information for your current web hosting account as well as the name of the web site that you want to transfer.
-
Q: The login details for my hosting account are delicate. How can I rely on you?
A: Before we can start the migration of your hosting account, you must first open an account with us. Opening an account with us will require that you to disclose more or less the same information you have given to your present web hosting provider. We also have a very rigid Privacy Policy, which specifies how personal data is tackled.
-
Q: How about downtime? Will my site be unavailable?
A: While we move your website, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your previous hosting provider. Once the transfer is over, we will ensure that everything is working properly and that the integrity of your web content is not jeopardized prior to notifying you that the transfer is complete. Then we’ll tell you how to move the domain over to your hosting account with us and how to change the DNS settings.
-
Q: Will my current web hosting provider learn that I am leaving them?
A: Nah. Aside from your login details for the Control Panel, we don’t need anything. We will never get in touch with your hosting provider. They won’t know anything about the transfer either.
-
Q: Does it matter what platform my current provider is using?
A: Yeah. We support all traditional Linux–based hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–powered hosting platforms, as we do not offer Windows hosting services ourselves.We also don’t support proprietary website building and administration tools like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
