Is website migration really free at WebsNP?

Yes. Website migration is included at no additional cost with any new or upgraded hosting plan at WebsNP. This applies to shared hosting, VPS, and managed dedicated server plans. Domain transfers have a small registry fee.

Will my website have downtime during migration?

No. Our migration team transfers all your data first, then updates DNS only after verifying everything is working correctly. Your old site remains live throughout the entire process, ensuring zero downtime.

What hosting panels do you support for migration?

We support migrations from cPanel/WHM, Plesk, DirectAdmin, and manual file/database transfers. We can also migrate from WordPress.com, Wix, and Squarespace with manual extraction.

How Our Migration Process Works

Request Migration After Sign-Up After purchasing your hosting plan, open a support ticket titled "Migration Request." Include your current host's name, the type of control panel (cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin), and your current hosting login credentials.
Assessment & Timeline Our team reviews your current setup and provides an estimated completion time. Small sites typically migrate in under 2 hours. Larger VPS or dedicated migrations may take 4–12 hours depending on data volume.
Secure Data Transfer We use encrypted rsync or cPanel's built-in transfer tool to securely copy all your files and databases to our servers. Your original site is not modified or deleted during this process.
Validation & Testing Once data is copied, our team tests your site on the new server using a temporary URL (or hosts file modification). We check that all pages load, databases connect, emails send/receive, and SSL is working.
DNS Cutover & Go Live After you approve the migration, we assist you in updating your domain's nameservers to point to WebsNP. Full DNS propagation typically takes 1–4 hours globally. We monitor your site during this window.

Frequently Asked Questions

Most shared hosting migrations complete within 2–4 hours. Complex VPS or dedicated server migrations, especially those with large databases or many accounts, may take up to 24 hours. We always give you an estimated timeline upfront.

No. You simply need to provide us with your current hosting login credentials (cPanel username/password or SFTP details) and your current host's server address. Our team handles all the technical work. You just need to approve the final result before going live.

Because your original site stays live during migration, there is no risk of data loss. If something is not working correctly on the new server, we fix it before cutting over DNS. We do not perform the DNS switch until you explicitly confirm that everything is working as expected.

Wix and Squarespace are closed platforms that do not allow direct database or file exports. However, we can help by exporting your content and rebuilding your WordPress or HTML site on WebsNP's servers. This service has an additional development fee depending on complexity.

Yes. We support Plesk-based migrations for Windows hosting plans. We can transfer ASP.NET applications, MSSQL databases, email accounts, and all associated files. Contact our team to discuss the specifics of your Windows application environment.
