Website Migration

Move your website while protecting data and rankings

We carefully move your website to a new host or platform, with a backup, testing on a temporary address, and a switch at a convenient time.

When moving your website feels risky

You're afraid your website will go down

What if your website disappears for days and customers can't place orders?

Your search rankings could drop

Without the right redirects and settings, a migration can hurt Google rankings and reduce traffic.

Your old host is slow or shutting down

Your provider raised prices, runs slowly, or is leaving the market. Moving the website yourself feels risky and confusing.

What's included in migration

01

A full backup before we start

We back up all files and the database first, protecting your data and giving us a way back.

02

File and database migration

We transfer the entire website, including files, database, email, and settings, without losing content in manual transfers.

03

New server setup

We prepare the PHP version, database, and web server your website needs to work reliably.

04

Testing on a temporary address

We run your website on a temporary address and test it before switching over.

05

Switch with minimal downtime

We change DNS at the right time so visitors barely notice the move.

06

Protecting search rankings

If your domain or page URLs change, we set up 301 redirects and notify search engines to help protect traffic.

How we move your website

We review your current website, CMS, and hosting, obtain access, and estimate the work involved.

2

Back up and transfer

We back up your website, move it to the new host, and bring it up on a test address.

Testing

We test pages, forms, payments, and email and fix minor environment compatibility issues.

Switch over

We point the domain to the new server and monitor stability during the first few days.

How much it costs

from $149

The cost depends on website size, CMS, and configuration complexity. A brochure website takes less time to move than a store with integrations. We quote after a short brief and website review.
