Website Migration
-
Q: What exactly does website migration imply and what does it entail?
A: When your present web hosting provider can no longer match the necessities of your site, or if you suffer from frequent network downtime, or if you are made to wait for hours for the customer care team to reply back to you, it might be a good idea to switch your provider, i.e. to move all the files for your websites together with your databases from your present provider to your future provider. At Trade Army Hosting, we realize that this can be hard & time–consuming. That is why we’ll do all that for you at no cost!Our highly competent technical team will migrate your web site content from your present hosting provider to us. Our technicians have broad experience migrating web sites and are able to take care of anything – from a traditional WordPress–based blog or Joomla™–driven website, to a highly elaborate, custom–built app.

Q: Just how long will it take for my site to be moved to your platform?
A: We try to perform all website migrations as fast as possible. However, we don’t have a set time frame for website migrations. There are various variables that you need to take into account – the sheer size of your website and the workload of our website migration staff, etc. We always strive to carry out each migration in under 48 hours. With less sizeable web sites, our team typically manages to finish in less than 24 hours.

Q: What info will I need to provide to your Website Migration Department?
A: We don’t need any sensitive details. We will need, though, the login info for your present hosting account as well as the name of the site that you want to migrate.
-
Q: I give you access to delicate info. How can I be sure that you won’t abuse it?
A: Our Privacy Policy is an indivisible part of the agreement that we’ll have with you as a client. We are devoted to safeguarding the safety of the personal details gathered from the clients. To achieve this, we use technical safety measures in order to prevent the loss, the misappropriation, the modification 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 protect and secure the details that we acquire on the Internet. When we request users to submit financial info (such as a credit card number), this info is encrypted using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology.

Q: Will there be any outage for my web site?
A: Nah. Your website will continue to be accessible online during the migration. Once everything is done on our end, we will notify you so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything’s alright, all you will need to do is modify your domain name’s DNS records.
-
Q: Will my old hosting provider need to provide any information/assistance?
A: Nah. We will never touch base with your web hosting provider about anything at all. They will not be aware of the web site transfer either.
-
Q: Which web hosting platforms do you support?
A: Yeah. We support all traditional Linux–powered hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–driven hosting platforms, as we don’t offer Windows web hosting solutions ourselves.In addition, we do not support proprietary web site building and administration user interfaces like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
