Migration Planning

Move a website with a checklist, not a promise.

Migration assistance depends on the current host, files, database, email, DNS, software, access, timing, and destination service. HostAvvy confirms scope before any move begins.

Migration is not automatically included with every order. Eligibility, scope, schedule, responsibilities, and any price are confirmed after review.
Discovery

Map what must keep working.

A website move is more than copying public files.

Site and application

Inventory files, databases, CMS versions, extensions, scheduled tasks, forms, stores, APIs, and required server software.

Email and DNS

Record mailboxes, forwarding, MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, subdomains, external services, and nameserver ownership.

Cutover and recovery

Choose a change window, lower DNS TTL where possible, define testing, preserve the old service, and document rollback.

Safer Sequence

Copy, test, switch, verify.

1

Collect access

Confirm current hosting, DNS, domain, application, database, and mailbox access before scheduling work.

2

Test the destination

Verify pages, forms, data, logins, jobs, email, SSL, and redirects before changing public DNS.

3

Monitor after cutover

Check DNS propagation, certificates, mail flow, errors, performance, analytics, and backups while the old service remains recoverable.
