Website Migration

A: The web site migration service on offer at HITECH is totally free of cost and consists of transferring all your files, databases and e–mails from your current web hosting provider to your new web hosting account with us. We’ll also edit all the configuration settings needed for your websites to be completely operational on our ultra–modern cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are fully capable of moving any sort of website. With years of practical experience in the industry, they’re experts in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other famous Control Panels. For them, moving a custom–built web app with plenty of custom libraries is as elementary as transferring a plain WordPress–based weblog.

A: There are lots of aspects to take into consideration – the overall number of files, the size of the database, the complexity of the site itself and the current workload of our website migration professionals, etc. Nonetheless, we do our very best to carry out all website migrations in a 48–hour period. Less sizeable sites are transferred much faster – typically in under 24 hours.

We employ safety measures, which include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard the information that we accumulate on the World Wide Web. And we’ve got a very detailed and rigorous Privacy Policy, which specifies the types of information that we gather.
