Website Migration

A: The website migration service offered by Central Nova Webhosting is totally free of charge and involves moving all your website files, databases and e–mails from your current provider to your new hosting account with us. We will also edit all the configuration settings necessary for your sites to be fully functional on our state–of–the–art cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring any type of site. With years of practical experience behind their backs, they are well–versed in the specificities of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other widely used Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–built web application with many custom libraries is as easy as transferring a plain WordPress–based weblog.

A: There are a lot of factors to bear in mind – the overall number of web files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the web site itself and the current workload of our website migration professionals, etc. However, we do our very best to accomplish all website migrations within a 48–hour time window. Less sizeable web sites are migrated much faster – typically in less than 24 hours.

A: We don’t need any sensitive info. We’ll require, though, the login information for your old web hosting account as well as the name of the web site that you want to transfer.

A: Client privacy is one of our prime responsibilities – that’s why, both our payment page and our Control Panel login page are secured with enterprise–level SSL certificates. We use safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative methods to protect the data that we acquire on the web. And we’ve also got a very detailed and rigid Privacy Policy, which describes the types of information that we collect.

A: Your website will continue to work just like it did before with your old hosting provider. As soon as we have finished the migration, your site will be configured to work on our hosting platform and we’ll alert you to preview it. If it is working correctly, all you will have to do is modify the name server resource records associated with your domain name. Your site will be migrated over to us without any downtime whatsoever.

A: Nah. We will never contact your web hosting provider about anything at all. They won’t be aware of the website transfer either.

A: Yes. We support all standard Linux–powered web hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–driven web hosting platforms, as we don’t offer Windows web hosting services ourselves.In addition, we don’t support proprietary web site creation and administration tools such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
