How do I move my current site to Web HSP?
Every situation is different, but generally, there are 4 basic steps in moving your site:
- Select and order your new hosting package.
- Move/Upload the contents of your current site to your new site.
- Test the new site
- Change the nameservers for your domain at the registrar where your domain is registered to our nameservers (provided in your welcome email).
Your site should propagate within 24-72 hours of the time you change your nameservers.
This process becomes a little more complex if you have an active database, such as a forum. In this case, you may want to reload your database and shut off the old one just before you switch over, then redirect your old site/forum to the new server in order to avoid getting your database out of sync.
Another tip is to check email on the old server using the IP address during propagation to avoid missing any email.
If you need assistance with a move, open a support ticket and ask our technicians for assistance. Although we may be able to assist you with the move, we cannot guarantee results, as some things may be out of our control.Powered by SmartFAQ |
