Website Migration

A: The web site migration service offered by KamHost is totally free of cost and involves moving all your files, databases and emails from your current hosting provider to your brand–new web hosting account with us. We’ll also edit all the configuration settings necessary for your web sites to be fully operational on our innovative cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are fully capable of transferring just about any web site. With years of work experience in the industry, they’re well–versed in the inner workings of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other famous Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–made app with numerous custom libraries is as easy as moving a simple WordPress weblog.

A: While we can’t give you an exact time window, since there are plenty of variables, including the size of the web files and databases, the location of the present host’s server, the complexity of your website and the current workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we’ll give our very best to transfer your website within 48 hours, and in certain cases – within 24 hours (in case the website content is not large).

A: Yep. We’ll need to have the name of the website that you wish us to transfer. We will also require a means to log in to your old hosting account so that we can get the content pertaining to your website.

We use security measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and managerial procedures to secure the data that we accumulate on the Internet. And we have a very detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we gather.

A: No. Your web site will continue to be reachable online during the migration. Once everything is completed on our end, we will tell you so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything’s OK, all you will have to do is modify your domain’s DNS resource records.

A: Nope. We will never touch base with your hosting provider about anything at all. They won’t be aware of the website migration either.
