What we move

Everything your site needs to run.

A website is more than files. We copy the whole account, then verify each piece before anything goes live.

Website files public_html, addon domains, subdomains, themes and plugins.
MySQL databases Every database and user, with credentials preserved.
Email accounts Mailboxes, aliases, forwarders and existing messages.
DNS records A, CNAME, MX, TXT and SPF/DKIM copied without typos.
SSL certificates A fresh free certificate issued and auto-renewed on our side.
Cron jobs & tasks Scheduled jobs, queues and redirect rules rebuilt on the new account.

The process

Five steps. No surprises.

You are not guessing what happens next. This is the exact sequence our engineers follow, and you get an update at every step.

  1. Audit and plan

    Within 1 hour

    We review your current host, panel, site size, mailboxes and DNS. You get a short written plan with the exact cutover window.

  2. Stage on our server

    Same day

    Your account is copied to RanaHost on a temporary hostname. The live site keeps running on your old host, untouched.

  3. Test everything

    Before cutover

    Pages, forms, logins, checkout, database reads and email delivery are all verified. SSL is issued. We fix anything that breaks here, not after.

  4. DNS cutover

    Minutes

    We lower the TTL ahead of time, then switch nameservers or the A record. Visitors move to the new server without a maintenance window.

  5. 14-day hypercare

    Two weeks

    We monitor the account after the switch and stay on the ticket with you. Your old host stays live as a rollback path until you are satisfied.

Before and after

What actually changes.

Same site, same domain, same content — a more predictable platform underneath it.

Typical current host

  • Mixed or outdated control panel
  • Apache with no page cache
  • Backups sold as a paid add-on
  • SSL renewal handled manually
  • Billing in USD by card only
  • Ticket queue with no clear owner

On RanaHost

  • cPanel on LiteSpeed and CloudLinux
  • LSCache with one-click optimisation
  • Daily backups included on every plan
  • Free SSL, issued and auto-renewed
  • PKR invoices, JazzCash, EasyPaisa, bank transfer
  • Engineer-led tickets, ~30 minute replies

Compatibility

Where we are migrating from.

If your host runs one of these, the move is routine. Anything unusual, tell us and we will still take a look.

Not on the list? Open a request anyway — we will confirm what is possible before you commit to anything.

Preparation

What you need — and what you don't.

Most of the work is ours. This is the short list of things only you can provide.

You will need

  • Your current hosting panel login, or SSH/SFTP access
  • Domain registrar login (for the DNS switch, or we use nameservers)
  • A list of the email accounts you want to keep
  • A preferred cutover window, if timing matters

You don't need

  • A maintenance window or site downtime
  • Developer or server administration skills
  • Any knowledge of DNS, MX or TTL records
  • To cancel your old host before the move is confirmed

Migration questions

The things people ask first.

Still unsure? Send us a message and we will answer directly.

Is the migration really free?

Yes. Migration is free on every shared, WordPress and reseller hosting plan. VPS and custom setups are quoted after the audit, because the scope varies — you approve the quote before any work starts.

Will my website go down during the move?

No. Your site is copied and tested on our server while the live version keeps running on your current host. The only change visitors see is the DNS switch, which typically completes in minutes once the TTL has been lowered.

What happens to my email during the switch?

Mailboxes and existing messages are copied first, then the MX records are pointed at RanaHost. We keep the old mailbox reachable during propagation so no message is lost in between.

How long does DNS take to update?

We lower your TTL before the cutover, so most visitors move within minutes. Some resolvers cache for longer, but the site stays reachable on both servers during that window.

What if something breaks after the switch?

We stay on the ticket for 14 days and monitor the account. Because your old host remains live, rolling back is a DNS change — not a rebuild. Nothing is deleted until you confirm you are happy.

Should I cancel my old host first?

No. Keep it active until the migration is verified and you have checked the site yourself. Once you are satisfied, cancel it on your own schedule.

Move to a host that answers.

Free migration, zero expected downtime, and an engineer on the other end of the ticket.
