Common migration questions

We need access to your current host. Pick the path that matches your situation:

Option 1: cPanel access (easiest)

  • cPanel URL (yourdomain.com/cpanel or similar)
  • Username + password

Option 2: FTP/SFTP

  • Hostname, username, password, port
  • Database credentials if separate

Option 3: WordPress admin login

  • Admin URL, username, password

Plus your domain registrar access (GoDaddy/Namecheap/etc.) so we can update DNS — or we send you the records to update yourself.

Never share passwords in plain email. Use one of these secure methods:

  • After signup, your dashboard has secure credential storage
  • Send via OneTimeSecret.com — auto-deletes after we read it
  • Share via password manager (1Password, Bitwarden, LastPass)

Typical timeline: under 24 hours.

  • Hour 0-2: We confirm and start downloading your site
  • Hour 2-8: We import and test everything on our servers
  • Hour 8-24: We update DNS for zero-downtime cutover
  • Day 1-3: We monitor your site to catch any issues

Bigger or complex sites can take up to 48 hours. We keep you updated at every step.

No. We migrate your site to our servers, test everything thoroughly, then only update DNS once we confirm the new copy works perfectly. Your old site stays live the entire time. Most customers see zero downtime.

We migrate your email accounts along with your site. You keep your custom domain email (admin@yourdomain.com, sales@yourdomain.com, etc.) and your existing inbox/folders are preserved. We can also help set up Google Workspace if you prefer.

Those are website builders that lock you into their platform — they're not really hostable in the traditional sense. We can't directly migrate from them, but we can help you rebuild on real hosting with WordPress or a static site. Sign up and open a ticket — we'll walk you through it.

We test your site thoroughly on our servers BEFORE updating DNS. If anything looks wrong, we hold off on the cutover and fix it first. After go-live, we monitor for 72 hours to catch any issues, and our support team is available to address anything else.

You also have a 7-day money-back guarantee. If migration goes badly, you get a full refund.

Yes! Business and Pro plans include multiple websites, and we migrate all of them as part of the free service. No extra charge, no extra setup fees — just tell us your domains during onboarding.

If you're already signed up, just log into your dashboard and submit a migration request from there. We'll review your details and start within 24 hours. → Sign in here
