We replicate your entire WordPress.

Database, plugins, themes, uploads, configs - everything is cloned to our servers and verified before you switch. Nothing is left behind.

Posts, pages, comments, users, custom post types, meta fields - your entire MySQL database.

Plugins

Active, inactive, premium - all plugin files and configurations transferred.

Themes

Parent themes, child themes, and every custom modification preserved.

Media Library

Every image, video, PDF, and file in your uploads directory.

WooCommerce

Products, orders, customers, payment gateways, shipping - your entire store.

SSL & Security

Free SSL provisioned. Firewall rules and security configs carried over.

Permalinks & SEO

URL structures, redirects, and SEO metadata preserved exactly.

wp-config & Settings

Site configuration, custom constants, and server-level settings carried over.

Three steps. We handle all of them.

questions

How long does migration typically take?

Most WordPress migrations complete within a day or two, depending on the size of your site. Larger sites with extensive media libraries or multisite setups may take a bit longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline once we review your site.

Will my site go offline?

No. Your current site stays fully online while we clone everything onto our servers. You only switch DNS when you're ready - the update takes minutes.

Will my plugins and themes work?

Yes. We transfer everything exactly as-is, including custom modifications. Our team verifies compatibility and resolves any issues before handoff.

Do you transfer WooCommerce stores?

Absolutely. Products, orders, customer data, payment gateways, shipping zones - all migrated. Your store stays operational throughout the process.

How do you communicate during migration?

Everything is handled via email and support tickets. We send you updates at each stage and a preview link when the migration is complete.

What access do you need?

WordPress admin login and your current hosting panel or FTP/SFTP credentials. All credentials are shared through your encrypted support ticket and deleted after migration.

Is it really free?

Yes. 100% free for all new customers on a WordPress hosting plan. No hidden fees, no conditions.

Ready to move your WordPress?

Free migration. Minimal downtime. Expert team. No contracts, no risk.
