No. Our parallel-run migration process is specifically designed to eliminate planned downtime. Your existing website remains fully operational, serving every visitor, processing every order and delivering every email throughout the entire migration process. The new environment is built and tested completely while your old environment stays live. The only moment that requires coordination is the DNS cutover, which we schedule at the lowest-traffic period of your week and which takes less than a minute to execute. During DNS propagation, which can take up to 48 hours globally depending on TTL settings, both environments are active and serve requests correctly, so visitors are served regardless of which DNS record their browser resolves to. In practice, the majority of visitors see the new environment within 1 to 4 hours of the DNS cutover. There is no planned window during which your website is unavailable.

Email migration is handled as a parallel process to the website migration. We recreate all email accounts at the destination hosting environment and migrate all existing emails, folders and sent items via IMAP migration before the DNS cutover. During the migration period, both the source and destination mail servers are configured to receive and deliver email, meaning no email is missed or delayed during the transition. Once the DNS MX records are updated to point to the new mail server, new emails begin arriving at the destination while historical email is already present from the pre-migration IMAP transfer. We configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC records at the new hosting environment as part of the migration to maintain email authentication and inbox delivery rates. After migration is complete, we provide reconfiguration instructions for every email client your team uses including Outlook, Apple Mail and mobile devices.

Yes. Migrations from page builder platforms to WordPress are one of the most common migration types we handle, and they involve more content work than a like-for-like hosting migration because the source platform does not export its content in a format that imports directly into WordPress. The process typically involves exporting available content from the source platform, importing it into WordPress using migration tools and custom scripts, recreating the page layout and design in WordPress using your chosen theme or page builder, redirecting all old page URLs to their new WordPress equivalents, and reconfiguring any third-party integrations such as contact forms, booking systems or email marketing connections. The result is a website on WordPress that you own and control completely, hosted wherever you choose, extensible with any plugin, and no longer subject to the platform-level restrictions, fee increases or closure risks that come with proprietary page builder platforms.

To start a website migration, we need access to your current hosting account and your destination hosting account. For the source, this typically means cPanel or hosting control panel login credentials, or SFTP and database access details for server-level migrations. For the destination, this means the new hosting account credentials so we can configure and populate the new environment. We also need access to your domain registrar account or DNS management panel to update DNS records at the appropriate time. For WordPress migrations we need WordPress admin access. For WooCommerce or e-commerce migrations we need admin access to the store. For email migrations we need access to each email account or the hosting mail server settings. During our initial consultation we provide a complete access request list so you can gather everything needed before we begin, and we walk you through how to find any credentials you are unsure about.

Every migration we manage includes a post-migration monitoring period during which we actively watch your website for any issues that emerge after DNS propagation completes. Standard migrations include 24 to 72 hours of active monitoring. E-commerce and enterprise migrations include up to 7 days. During this period any issue is escalated immediately and resolved by our team. Because every migration begins with a complete, verified backup, we also have the ability to fully restore the previous state if any issue cannot be resolved quickly at the destination. In practice, post-migration issues that require intervention are uncommon because our pre-DNS testing checklist catches the vast majority of potential problems before cutover. But having both the monitoring process and the verified backup as a rollback option means that even in an unlikely worst-case scenario, your website can be fully restored to its pre-migration state within hours without permanent data loss.

Yes. E-commerce store migrations are among the most complex we handle and the ones where data completeness is most commercially critical, because every missing order record represents a gap in financial reporting, customer history and inventory reconciliation. Our e-commerce migration process includes a final database synchronisation pass immediately before DNS cutover capturing any orders placed during the migration preparation period, row count verification comparing the order table at source and destination to confirm every record transferred, revenue continuity verification comparing total order values at source and destination, customer account verification confirming all accounts exist at the destination, and payment gateway test transaction at the destination confirming live orders can process before the DNS switch is made. For stores that receive continuous orders and cannot afford any gap in order capture, we can schedule the final database sync and DNS cutover to occur within a single 15 to 30 minute window of minimal order activity, typically late at night, making the data synchronisation gap as small as technically possible.
