Step 1
File backup
We identify and back up everything that makes up your current site: HTML, PHP, images and the database, where applicable.
Your part: Give us access to your current hosting or site builder.
Our part: We make a full backup and check that nothing is missing before moving on.
Step 2
Transfer to the new hosting
We upload the files to your BorealHosting account, keeping the original site structure.
Your part: No technical work is needed from you at this step.
Our part: We set up FTP access, upload the files and adjust whatever the new environment requires.
Step 3
Testing in a private environment
Before touching your live site, we test pages, forms and links on a private copy.
Your part: Review the copy with us and tell us about any adjustments.
Our part: We fix whatever is needed before moving on.
Step 4
Go-live
Once testing is approved, we point your domain to the new hosting and confirm everything works.
Your part: Give us the final go-ahead for the switch.
Our part: We update DNS, monitor the site load and stay on hand during the first hours.
