Website Migration
-
Q: What exactly does website migration mean and what does it entail?
A: When your current web hosting provider can no longer match the necessities of your web site, or if you experience continual network downtime, or if you are forced to wait for hours for the support staff to reply back to you, it might be a clever idea to change your hosting provider, i.e. to transfer all the files for your websites along with your databases from your present provider to your new provider. At www.UlehNet.com, we know that this can be hard & time–consuming. This is the reason why we’ll accomplish all that for you for free!Our qualified technical team members will move your website content from your present hosting provider to us. Our techs have a lot of experience with website migration and are able to handle anything – from a common WordPress–based weblog or Joomla™ CMS–powered web site, to an extremely elaborate, custom–made app.

Q: Just how long will it take for my website to be moved over to your platform?
A: We try to perform all website migrations as fast as possible. Nonetheless, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are different elements that you need to take into account – the actual size of your web site and the workload of our web site migration team, etc. We constantly strive to accomplish each migration in under 48 hours. With smaller–sized sites, our staff usually manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: What details will I be asked to provide to your Website Migration Department?
A: We do not request any sensitive data. We’ll need, however, the login information for your old hosting account as well as the name of the site that you’d like to migrate.

Q: The login details for my hosting account are sensitive. How can I trust you?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the contract that we’ll have with you as a customer. We are committed to protecting the safety of the private details gathered from the customers. To achieve this, we employ technical safety measures in order to prevent the loss, the abuse, the alteration or the illegal leakage of the personal data under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the data that we receive online. When we request clients to present financial information (for example, a debit card number), this info is encrypted using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption technology.

Q: Will my site be offline during the migration?
A: While we migrate your website, it will be available both in your web hosting account with us and in your account with your previous web hosting provider. Once the migration is finished, we will make certain that everything is working properly and that the integrity of your content is not jeopardized prior to telling you that the transfer is over. After that, we’ll instruct you how to move the domain name to your hosting account with us and how to change the DNS settings.
-
Q: Will my present web hosting provider need to do anything?
A: While we transfer 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.

Q: Which hosting platforms do you support?
A: Yes. We support all common Linux–based hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–based hosting platforms, since we do not provide Windows web hosting solutions ourselves.In addition, we do not support proprietary website creation and administration interfaces like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
