Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing the wrong hosting provider can have a damaging impact on your site and your business. There are a number of ways that a poor web host can impact your site and your business. You may even have some of the following issues with your current provider without even realizing it.
  • Slow site speed
  • Downtime
  • Data loss

A good web hosting provider offers features that help your business, not hinder it. Finding a good website hosting provider is crucial to your website’s health and your business’s success. For you to realize your business goals, you need your site to be secured, active, and functioning at its optimum.

Here are 11 signs that indicate that it’s time for a web hosting change

Any requested website should be running correctly on your current provider - any errors being logged or functional issues with the site should be resolved by you before the migration. We will check your site is running correctly once it's migrated - but we won't fix existing issues.
For full cPanel migration, we guarantee a migration time in less than 24 hours with no more than 5 minutes of downtime. Please keep in mind that partial cPanel migration often takes longer than 24 hours.
Email accounts only included with cPanel migrations. Non-cPanel migrations may require email to be manually migrated.
Your account with the old provider should be active for at least 2-5 days after the transfer assistance request submission. Otherwise, we may not be able to finish the transfer of the files on time.
Migration, in the world of web hosting, is the process of transferring files, databases, and emails from one server to another. It’s a necessity for any business that wants to move to a new host – or for any individual who is unhappy with their current provider. Web hosting migration is the process of transferring your website from one host to another without negatively affecting search engine rankings or changing your website’s appearance or functionality. Fortunately though, there are plenty of hosts like Hostinkos that offer free migration assistance.
Yes, that is no problem. Our shared hosting (referring to non VPS/Dedicated Servers) services use cPanel or Plesk which is the most common control panels. If your current hosting doesn't use these or doesn't use a control panel at all, then we can manually transfer all your website's data.
No, we will migrate all your website's data to your new hosting package, and when you are ready you can change your domains nameservers which will make the swap from your old to new hosting. We recommend not cancelling or turning off your old web hosting for 72 hours once you have made the nameserver change.
We aim to have basic websites transferred within 3 hours but transfer time depends on your website's size. For example, many bloggers have a large amount of images which could mean they have files using up to 25GB of disk space, so it will take longer to transfer this amount of data. We will keep you updated during the transfer process.
No, we don't limit you on the number of sites to migrate. If you have any special migration cases such as 100's of GB of data then we recommend contacting the sales team as this may require extra time and need to be quoted for. Most websites are under 10GB and we do not limit the number of sites in these cases.
