Migrating a website to a new server is complicated, but we’ve done it a million times.
We’ll transfer your site to a new server seamlessly, without disrupting your business.
Comprehensive Migration
We move it all. Everything associated with your website is perfectly copied, re-installed, and re-configured on your new server so there is no perceivable change to your front-end.
- Software
- Databases
- Files & Code
- Content
- Domain Migration (optional)
- E-commerce Orders
Seamless Transition
Keep your site up and running throughout the entire process. When we’re ready to flip the switch and direct visitors to your new server, we do so in a way that minimizes downtime while your DNS propagates. Most visitors will never notice a change.

No worries! We migrate your databases as part of the formal process. We coordinate with you on timing to bring over as up-to-date of content as possible before updating your DNS settings.
