List what is moving.
Website files, databases, media and connected services may have different owners and transfer requirements. We agree what the migration includes and which parts stay with their current provider. Email is checked separately.
Get the accounts and access straight.
We identify the domain registrar, DNS records that direct visitors and email, hosting, email and any important integrations. You retain control of the business accounts. Missing access and supplier handover work are resolved before a switch is scheduled.
Prepare and check the destination.
The new environment needs to suit the website. We agree how the website is copied, the testing, data handling and a rollback plan for returning to the previous setup, including how new orders, bookings or edits made during the move will be treated.
Agree the switch-over.
The plan identifies who changes the DNS records, which URLs need redirects and how forms, checkout and email will be checked. Timing and expected interruption are agreed for that particular migration.
