Free migration service
Coming from another provider? We move your website, database and email to Nethost free of charge, usually within 24 hours and without downtime.
How it works
We migrate your website. Free of charge, without downtime.
Coming from another provider? Send us your login details and we move your website, database and email. Usually within 24 hours, while your old site stays online. Only when everything works do we change the DNS together.
- Website, database and emailFiles, database, email addresses with their contents and your SSL certificate are all set up again.
- Usually within 24 hoursMost migrations are done within one working day; large web shops can take longer.
- Your old site stays onlineWe copy everything while your old site keeps running; only when the copy works do we switch the DNS together.

Together we switch the DNS
At a time that suits you we switch the DNS. Your visitors notice nothing.
What we need from you
Four things, nothing more
- The login details of your current hosting panel (or a backup of your site and database).
- Which domain belongs to it and whether you want to transfer that domain to us too.
- Whether we should also migrate email and which mailboxes exist.
- A moment that suits you for the DNS switch.
Want to transfer your domain name to us too? You do that yourself in the customer panel with your transfer code; a .nl transfer is free.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes. With every package we move your website, database and email free of charge. Usually within 24 hours and without downtime.
Yes. We copy the complete installation including uploads, plugins, themes and the database, and then check that everything works on our PHP version.
No. We copy your mailboxes beforehand and once more right before the DNS switch, so the latest messages come along too.
Only after the DNS has been switched and you have seen for a few days that everything works. Mind the notice period in your old contract.
