Switch without
the risk.
Our migration team handles every step — files, database, DNS, SSL — with zero downtime and instant rollback. Included with your hosting, not billed extra. Your current site stays untouched until you approve the switch.
Experience migrating from: Papaki, TopHost, SiteGround, Cloudways, Bluehost, GoDaddy, and more.
Migration without compromise
No migration fees
Managed migration is bundled with your hosting — one site or fifty. No setup costs, no migration charges, no upsells.
Downtime
DNS-level cutover means your old site runs until the moment DNS propagates. Visitors always see a working site.
Rollback
If anything is not right after migration, we roll back to your previous host immediately. No questions asked.
Four steps, handled for you
You provide access to your current host. We do the rest. The entire process typically takes 24-48 hours, and your site remains live on your current host throughout.
Submit your migration request
Fill out a short form with your current hosting details. We need your hosting provider name, login credentials (or an invite to the hosting panel), and any special considerations like custom server configurations or non-standard setups.
You can also provide SFTP/SSH credentials and a database export if you prefer. We work with whatever access method is easiest for you. Multiple sites? Submit them all at once.
Hosting panel login or SFTP credentials, database access, and a list of domains. That is it. We figure out the rest.
We copy everything to your new environment
Our migration team copies your entire site: the database, all files in wp-content (uploads, plugins, themes), and your configuration. We set up your new isolated environment on our server cluster with matching PHP settings, cron jobs, and environment variables.
We install your SSL certificate, configure Redis caching, set up Grandhosting CDN for your media files, and run a full malware scan. Your new site is an exact replica of your current one, running on better infrastructure.
Most sites are copied within 2-4 hours. Large WooCommerce stores with big databases may take up to 12 hours.
Review and verify
We provide you with a temporary URL to preview your migrated site. Check every page, test forms, verify WooCommerce checkout flows, confirm plugin functionality. Take your time. Your current site continues running normally on your old host during this entire phase.
If anything looks different or is not working correctly, we fix it. This step takes as long as you need. There is no rush and no deadline.
Check homepage, key pages, forms, checkout (if WooCommerce), admin login, media images, and email delivery.
DNS switch and go live
When you are satisfied, we guide you through updating your DNS records. This is typically changing two A records at your domain registrar. We provide exact values and step-by-step instructions for your specific registrar.
DNS propagation typically takes 1-4 hours. During this window, some visitors reach your old host and some reach the new one. Both are serving your site, so there is no disruption. Once propagation completes, all traffic flows to your new Grandhosting environment. We perform a final database sync to capture any orders or form submissions that arrived at your old host during propagation.
We sync any new database changes from your old host after DNS propagation. No orders or data are lost in the transition.
What we migrate
We do not just copy files and hope for the best. Every aspect of your WordPress site is migrated, verified, and optimized for our infrastructure.
Database
Full MySQL/MariaDB export and import. We verify table integrity, update serialized URLs if your domain changes, and optimize database tables during the migration.
Files & uploads
All files in wp-content: uploads, plugins, themes, custom directories. Media files are also offloaded to Grandhosting CDN for faster global delivery.
SSL certificates
We provision a new Let’s Encrypt SSL certificate for your domain. HTTPS is configured automatically. No manual certificate installation needed.
DNS guidance
Step-by-step DNS update instructions for your specific registrar. We provide the exact A record values and walk you through the change if needed.
Plugins & themes
All active and inactive plugins, all themes. We verify compatibility with our PHP version and flag any known issues before you go live.
Email configuration
SMTP settings are configured via Grandhosting SMTP for reliable transactional email delivery. WordPress notification emails, WooCommerce order emails, and form submissions work from day one.
Migrating an entire agency portfolio?
We handle bulk migrations — 10 sites, 30 sites, 50 sites. Each migrated in parallel. Per-site billing starts only when each site goes live. Your clients never notice the switch.

Most standard WordPress sites are migrated within 24 hours. Large WooCommerce stores or sites with databases over 1GB may take 24-48 hours. The review phase takes as long as you need. DNS propagation after you approve typically takes 1-4 hours. Total elapsed time from request to live: 2-4 days, depending on how quickly you review.
Οι περισσότερες τυπικές ιστοσελίδες WordPress μεταφέρονται εντός 24 ωρών. Μεγάλα καταστήματα WooCommerce ή sites με βάσεις δεδομένων άνω του 1GB ενδέχεται να χρειαστούν 24-48 ώρες. Η φάση ελέγχου διαρκεί όσο χρειαστείς. Η διάδοση DNS μετά την έγκρισή σου διαρκεί συνήθως 1-4 ώρες. Συνολικός χρόνος από το αίτημα έως τη μετάβαση live: 2-4 ημέρες, ανάλογα με το πόσο γρήγορα κάνεις τον έλεγχο.
No. Your current site stays running on your old host throughout the entire process. We copy your site to our infrastructure, you review it on a temporary URL, and when you are ready, you update DNS. During DNS propagation (1-4 hours), both your old and new hosts serve your site. Once propagation completes, we do a final database sync. Visitors always see a working site.
Όχι. Το τρέχον site σου παραμένει ενεργό στον παλιό σου host καθ' όλη τη διάρκεια της διαδικασίας. Αντιγράφουμε το site σου στην υποδομή μας, το ελέγχεις σε ένα προσωρινό URL, και όταν είσαι έτοιμος, ενημερώνεις το DNS. Κατά τη διάρκεια της διάδοσης DNS (1-4 ώρες), τόσο ο παλιός όσο και ο νέος host εξυπηρετούν το site σου. Μόλις ολοκληρωθεί η διάδοση, κάνουμε έναν τελικό συγχρονισμό της βάσης δεδομένων. Οι επισκέπτες βλέπουν πάντα ένα λειτουργικό site.
If your email is hosted separately from your website (Gmail, Microsoft 365, Zoho, etc.), it is not affected at all. Your MX records stay the same. If your email is hosted with your current web host, you will need to update MX records or migrate email separately. We will identify this during the migration assessment and guide you through the options.
Αν το email σου φιλοξενείται ξεχωριστά από την ιστοσελίδα σου (Gmail, Microsoft 365, Zoho κ.λπ.), δεν επηρεάζεται καθόλου. Οι εγγραφές MX παραμένουν οι ίδιες. Αν το email σου φιλοξενείται στον τρέχοντα web host σου, θα χρειαστεί να ενημερώσεις τις εγγραφές MX ή να μεταφέρεις το email ξεχωριστά. Θα το εντοπίσουμε κατά την αξιολόγηση της μεταφοράς και θα σε καθοδηγήσουμε στις επιλογές.
Your old site is never modified or deleted during migration. If anything is not working correctly on the new environment, simply revert your DNS records back to the old host. Traffic returns to your original site within minutes. We also keep a full backup of the migrated state so we can troubleshoot and retry. There is zero risk to your current site.
Το παλιό σου site δεν τροποποιείται ή διαγράφεται ποτέ κατά τη μεταφορά. Αν κάτι δεν λειτουργεί σωστά στο νέο περιβάλλον, απλώς επαναφέρεις τις εγγραφές DNS στον παλιό host. Η κίνηση επιστρέφει στο αρχικό σου site μέσα σε λίγα λεπτά. Κρατάμε επίσης πλήρες backup της μεταφερμένης κατάστασης, ώστε να μπορούμε να διορθώσουμε το πρόβλημα και να ξαναδοκιμάσουμε. Δεν υπάρχει κανένας κίνδυνος για το τρέχον site σου.
We do not currently support WordPress multisite (network) installations. Each site on our platform runs in its own isolated environment, which is fundamentally incompatible with the multisite architecture. However, we can migrate individual sites from a multisite network into separate, isolated environments. Each migrated site gets its own environment, database, and resources.
Αυτή τη στιγμή δεν υποστηρίζουμε εγκαταστάσεις WordPress multisite (network). Κάθε site στην πλατφόρμα μας τρέχει στο δικό του απομονωμένο περιβάλλον, κάτι που είναι θεμελιωδώς ασύμβατο με την αρχιτεκτονική multisite. Μπορούμε ωστόσο να μεταφέρουμε μεμονωμένα sites από ένα δίκτυο multisite σε ξεχωριστά, απομονωμένα περιβάλλοντα. Κάθε μεταφερμένο site αποκτά το δικό του περιβάλλον, βάση δεδομένων και πόρους.
Yes. We have migrated sites from shared hosts, managed WordPress platforms, cloud VPS providers, EU infrastructure providers, and dozens of others. If you can provide access to your files and database, we can migrate it. For hosts with proprietary panels, we work with whatever export tools are available.
Ναι. Έχουμε μεταφέρει sites από shared hosts, managed WordPress πλατφόρμες, παρόχους cloud VPS, ευρωπαϊκούς παρόχους υποδομής, και δεκάδες άλλους. Αν μπορείς να μας δώσεις πρόσβαση στα αρχεία και τη βάση δεδομένων σου, μπορούμε να το μεταφέρουμε. Για hosts με ιδιόκτητα πάνελ διαχείρισης, δουλεύουμε με όποια εργαλεία εξαγωγής είναι διαθέσιμα.
There is no limit. Agencies regularly migrate 10-30 sites in a single batch. We process them in parallel, so migrating 20 sites does not take 20 times as long. Bulk migrations typically complete within 48-72 hours. Each site gets its own isolated environment on our platform.
Δεν υπάρχει όριο. Οι agencies μεταφέρουν τακτικά 10-30 sites σε μία παρτίδα. Τα επεξεργαζόμαστε παράλληλα, οπότε η μεταφορά 20 sites δεν διαρκεί 20 φορές περισσότερο. Οι μαζικές μεταφορές ολοκληρώνονται συνήθως εντός 48-72 ωρών. Κάθε site αποκτά το δικό του απομονωμένο περιβάλλον στην πλατφόρμα μας.
