Switch Web Hosting & Email Providers

There are many reasons to consider switching web solutions providers. Often times users want to switch because of slow support or slow services. Evolve Hosting specializes in safely and securely transferring all of your data and providing you witht the support, pricing and friendliness that you deserve. We make it easy to get high quality support and to easily manage your services and renewals.

Our team is highly trained to properly move and setup your domains, hosting and/or email services and ensure they are up and running around the clock. We have experience moving services from every major provider and we offer a no hassle 30 day money back guarantee (excluding domain transfers and registration) for all of our new customers.

How the Transfer Process Works

Most data transfers are free of charge after signing up for a new service. There are a few exceptions including some email transfers and there is a discounted fee to transfer a domain. 1 Year renewal is included in that fee, in most cases.

Domain Names

Domain Transfers require a small fee which includes the transfer and extends your expiration date for 1 year. There are a couple of rules that must be met in order to transfer:
1) The domain must NOT be expired
2) The domain must be registered or last transferred 60+ days ago
3) The domain has to be unlocked at the current registrar
4) The EPP / Transfer code must be provided to us
5) Privacy Protection may need to be disabled

Items 3 - 5 can be taken care of after an order has been placed.

Hosting

Hosting Data transfers are done free of charge as long as you are currently using cPanel or DirectAdmin. After your order has been placed, we will reach out to schedule a date and time to safely move your account and get you properly setup.

Our team will collect the necessary login credentials, check to make sure your data is free of malware and then backup and move your data to our servers. If your domains are registered through Evolve Hosting, we will make the necessary DNS changes. Otherwise, we will provide you with the DNS details and you can make them through your current domain registrar.

SSL Certificates

SSL Certificates are usually transferred automatically with your hosting account. Otherwise, we may ask you to provide us with the certificate files or we have new certificates available for purchase.
