A clean, modern illustration of data transfer between two servers, symbolizing website migration.

Our website hosting and migration service covers the transfer, launch checks, monitoring, and ongoing maintenance. Send these details so we can move the site without interrupting service.

Hosting & Server

  • Current host login - Where your site lives now.
  • FTP/SFTP credentials - To transfer files.
  • SSH access - If your site runs on a server with command-line access.

Database

  • Database login - Username, password, and database name.
  • phpMyAdmin (or similar) - To export and import data.

Domain & DNS

  • Domain registrar login - Where your domain is registered.
  • DNS settings - To point your domain to the new site.

Website Admin

  • CMS login - WordPress, Shopify, or whatever you use.
  • Plugin/theme licenses - If you have paid ones.

Email & Services

  • Email provider login - If emails are tied to your current host.
  • CDN login - If you use Cloudflare or a similar service.
  • Analytics login - Google Analytics, Search Console, etc.

Why It Matters?

Not having the right credentials can delay the migration, break things, or even lose data.
