Website Migration

A: The web site migration service offered by SCGDomains.Com is totally free and consists of transferring all your files, databases and emails from your current provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We will also revise all the settings needed for your sites to be fully operational on our state–of–the–art cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are completely capable of moving any type of site. With years of experience behind their backs, they’re well–versed in the specificities of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other popular Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–made application with many custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a plain WordPress blog.

A: There are many aspects to take into account – the overall amount of files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the current workload of our website migration professionals, etc. That being said, we do our very best to implement all website migrations within a 48–hour period. Smaller web sites are migrated faster – typically in under 24 hours.

A: We’ll require the login details for your current web hosting provider’s Control Panel along with the web site’s name (domain name).

A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the agreement that we’ll have with you as a customer. We are devoted to safeguarding the security of the personal data collected from the clients. To achieve this, we use technical security measures to avoid the loss, the misuse, the alteration or the unauthorized leakage of the personal data under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial methods to protect and secure the info that we obtain on the World Wide Web. When we request users to present financial info (for example, a credit card number), this info is masked using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technology.

A: Your website will work just like it did before with your former web hosting provider. When we are done with the transfer, your web site will be configured to work on our hosting platform and we will alert you to preview it. If everything is functioning properly, all you will need to do is update the NS resource records pertaining to your domain. Your site will be transferred over to us without any downtime.

A: While we transfer your content, your web hosting provider will not be aware of the migration at all. We will not get in touch with them in any way.

A: We support all Linux–powered hosting platforms. Generally, if we can obtain access to your Control Panel, we’ll be able to migrate your web site.The only platforms that we don’t support are closed–source web site management platforms like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
