Website Migration

A: If your present web hosting provider can no longer satisfy the demands of your website, or when you experience regular network downtime, or if you are made to wait for hours for the customer support team to get back to you, it may be a good idea to switch your web hosting provider, i.e. to move all the files for your sites along with your databases from your present provider to your future provider. At KSA Web Host, we realize that this can often be difficult & time–consuming. This is the reason why we will do all that for you for free!Our highly experienced technical staff reps will transfer your site content from your present provider to us. Our techs have got a lot of experience with website migration and are able to handle anything – from a common WordPress–powered blog or Joomla^™–based website, to a very complex, custom–made web app.

A: We try to implement all website migrations ASAP. Yet, we do not have a set time frame for website migrations. There are certain facets that you need to consider – the actual size of your web site and the workload of our web site migration staff, etc. We always strive to perform each migration in less than 48 hours. With smaller web sites, our team usually manages to finish within 24 hours.

A: We’ll require the login information for your old web hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as 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 client. We’re dedicated to safeguarding the security of the private information collected from the customers. To accomplish this, we employ technical safety measures so as to avoid the loss, the misapplication, the alteration or the unauthorized disclosure of the information under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative methods to protect and secure the info that we receive on the web. When we request clients to supply financial info (such as a credit card number), this info is secured using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology.

A: No. Your website will stay reachable online during the transfer. Once everything is done on our end, we’ll let you know so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything’s alright, all you will have to do is edit your domain’s DNS settings.

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

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