| With a bit of planning, moving your website to a dependable host is no need for concern. You can seamlessly complete the migration to your PingPipe account if you follow a few easy steps: 1) Backup your site content hosted with the “old” provider. Connect to your account there with your ftp client, download a copy of your website, and save it on your computer. 2) Sign up for a shared hosting website solution with PingPipe. As soon as your payment is verified setup will get underway. Once setup is complete you will receive a Welcoming Email with your account details. 3) Visit your domain registrar and add modify the DNS settings of the third and forth nameservers to NS3.PINGPIPE.NET and NS4.PINGPIPE.NET. 4) Upload a copy of the content backup to your shared hosting website solution with PingPipe. Detailed instructions are included in your welcoming email. 5) Visit your domain registrar and change NS1 and NS2 to NS1.PINGPIPE.NET and NS2.PINGPIPE.NET. It could take up to three days for the DNS changes to propagate, and during that time visitors will be served your website from either the old host’s server from your website hosting solution with PingPipe. It’s recommended to not do updates to your website(s) during that time. After 3 days you should not see the “old” host nameservers when you do a whois search, and it will be ok to cancel your account with the “old” host. |
