FAQs
Website Migration FAQs

No. We use a zero-downtime migration process. Your existing website stays live throughout the entire migration. We set up the new server first, verify everything works, and only then switch the DNS. Your visitors experience no interruption.
Most websites migrate in 2–4 hours. Large sites with many files or complex databases may take longer. We will give you a time estimate before we start and send WhatsApp updates throughout the process.
No. You only need to provide your current hosting login credentials. Our Nairobi team handles everything from file copying to DNS switching. You can monitor progress and ask questions via WhatsApp at any time.
