Website Migration

A: If your present hosting provider can no longer measure up to the needs of your site, or when you undergo regular downtime, or if you are made to wait for hours for the technical support team to get back to you, it may be a clever idea to swap your web hosting provider, i.e. to migrate all the files for your websites along with your databases from your present provider to your new provider. At Oregon Computing, we realize that this can often be difficult and time–consuming. That is why we will accomplish all that for you for free!Our highly trained technical team members will transfer your web site content from your present provider to us. Our technicians have got lots of experience migrating websites and can take care of anything – from a traditional WordPress blog or Joomla^™ site, to a very elaborate, custom–made app.

A: There are plenty of factors to bear in mind – the total number of web files, the physical size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the present workload of our website migration experts, etc. Even so, we do our best to carry out all web site migrations within a 48–hour time frame. Less sizeable web sites are transferred much faster – typically within 24 hours.

A: Yeah. We will need to have the name of the web site that you wish us to transfer. We will also need a way to log into your old web hosting account so that we can get the content associated with your web site.

A: Before we can begin the transfer of your web hosting account, you must already have an account with us. Opening an account with us requires that you to share more or less the same info you have provided to your current hosting provider. We also have a very strict Privacy Policy, which describes how sensitive info is dealt with.

A: Nah. Your site will continue to be accessible online during the transfer. Once everything is done on our end, we will inform you so that you can examine it and check for problems. If everything’s okay, all you will have to do is change your domain’s DNS settings.

A: While we move your web content, your hosting provider will not be aware of the migration at all. We won’t contact them in any way.

A: Yes. We support all common Linux–based web hosting platforms. We do not support Windows–driven hosting platforms, since we do not provide Windows hosting solutions ourselves.We also don’t support proprietary website creation and administration user interfaces such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
