Website Migration

A: The website migration service offered by iowep is completely free and involves transferring all your web files, databases and emails from your current web hosting provider to your new hosting account with us. We will also modify all the settings required for your websites to be fully functional on our ultramodern cloud hosting platform.Our techs are completely capable of transferring any kind of website. With years of experience behind their backs, they are well–versed in the specificities of our cloud hosting platform, our Control Panel as well as all other famous Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom–made app with multiple custom libraries is as easy as transferring a simple WordPress weblog.

A: There are many factors to bear in mind – the total amount of web files, the size of the database, the complexity of the website itself and the current workload of our website migration experts, etc. That being said, we do try to implement all web site migrations in a 48–hour window. Less sizeable web sites are transferred much faster – typically in less than 24 hours.

A: We’ll require the login details for your current hosting provider’s Control Panel as well as the website’s name (domain name).

A: User privacy is one of our foremost priorities – for this reason, both our payment transaction page and our CP login page are protected with enterprise–grade SSLs. We employ safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, digital and administrative procedures to protect the data that we gather on the web. And we’ve got a very detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which outlines the types of information that we collect.

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

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

A: We can migrate your website from any hosting provider or any Linux–powered web hosting platform provided that we can get access to the Control Panel and there is FTP access available.The only websites that we can’t transfer are the ones based on closed–source software apps like Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square and Mr Site.
