Website Migration

A: The website migration service offered by BMtec is totally free of charge and involves moving all your website files, databases and emails from your current provider to your brand new web hosting account with us. We’ll also fine–tune all the configuration settings required for your web sites to be fully functional on our state–of–the–art cloud hosting platform.Our technicians are completely capable of transferring any type of site. With years of experience behind their backs, they’re well–versed in the inner workings of our hosting platform, our Control Panel and all other well–known Control Panels. For them, transferring a custom web app with lots of custom libraries is as easy as moving a simple WordPress weblog.

A: While we can’t give you a precise time interval, because there are many factors, among them the size of the web files and databases, the location of the current host’s server, the complexity of your web site and the current workload of our Website Migration Department, etc., we’ll try our very best to transfer your site within 48h, and in certain cases – within 24h (if the content is not large).

A: We do not gather any sensitive data. We will need, though, the login information for your present hosting account and the name of the website that you would like to transfer.

A: Our Privacy Policy is an inseparable part of the contract that we will have with you as a client. We are devoted to safeguarding the security of the private details gathered from the customers. To do that, we use technical security measures so as to avoid the loss, the misuse, the alteration or the illegal disclosure of the personal information under our control. The measures include, but are not limited to: physical, electronic and administrative procedures to safeguard and secure the details that we obtain on the World Wide Web. When we ask clients to supply financial information (for example, a debit card number), this info is encoded using the SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technology.

A: Nah. Your web site will remain accessible online during the transfer. Once everything is completed on our end, we’ll let you know so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything’s alright, all you will have to do is change your domain name’s DNS settings.

A: Nah. We will never touch base with your hosting provider about anything. They will not be aware of the website migration either.

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