Website Migration

A: The web site migration service provided by DigitalOcean.Top is entirely free of charge and consists of transferring all your files, databases and emails from your present provider to your brand–new hosting account with us. We will also update all the configuration settings required for your websites to be completely functional on our innovative cloud hosting platform.Our techs are fully capable of transferring just about any website. With years of work experience in the industry, they’re experts in the inner workings of our web hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other commonly used Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom web application with plenty of custom libraries is as elementary as moving a plain WordPress blog.

A: We try to implement all website migrations as fast as possible. Even so, we don’t have a fixed time frame for website migrations. There are several variables 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 within 48 hours. With smaller web sites, our team usually manages to finish within 24 hours.

A: We do not require any information that is personal. We’ll require, though, the login information for your present hosting account as well as the name of the site that you wish to migrate.

A: User privacy is truly one of our primary priorities – for this reason, both our payment transaction page and our CP login page are secured with enterprise–grade digital certificates. We employ safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial procedures to safeguard the data that we obtain on the World Wide Web. And we also have a detailed and strict Privacy Policy, which describes the types of information that we gather.

A: While we migrate your web site, it will be available both in your hosting account with us and in your account with your previous web hosting provider. After the transfer is completed, we will ensure that everything is working correctly and that the integrity of your content is not compromised before telling you that the migration is finished. Then we will instruct you how to move the domain to your hosting account with us and how to update your DNS resource records.

A: While we move your content, your hosting provider won’t be aware of the transfer at all. We will never contact them in any way.

A: We can migrate your site from any hosting provider or any Linux–based hosting platform given that we can acquire access to the Control Panel and there’s FTP access available.The only websites that we cannot transfer are the ones based on closed–source software applications like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
