Q: Will my site be offline during the migration?
A: Nope. Your website will continue to be accessible online during the transfer. Once everything is completed on our end, we’ll inform you so that you can preview it and check for any problems. If everything is fine, all you will need to do is change your domain’s DNS resource records.

Q: Will my present web hosting provider have to do anything?
A: While we move your web content, your web hosting provider won’t be aware of the migration at all. We will not touch base with them in any way.

A: Yeah. We support all common Linux–powered web hosting platforms. We don’t support Windows–driven web hosting platforms, because we do not offer Windows web hosting solutions ourselves.In addition, we don’t support proprietary website building and administration interfaces such as Wix, BaseKit, Jimdo, Website Tonight, Four Square, Mr Site, etc.
