Our free Migration Centre moves your website files, databases, and email mailboxes from most Linux hosts. Preview everything on a temporary URL before you switch DNS, with expert help on standby if you need it.
Switch to 365i and we'll move your website files, databases, and email mailboxes from most Linux hosts using the automated Migration Centre. Designed for zero downtime, with no file size limits and no cap on how many sites you move. WordPress sites transfer with themes, plugins, and databases intact, and your old host keeps serving traffic until you switch DNS.
The Migration Centre transfers your entire hosting setup: files, databases, and email. It's free, unlimited, and available with every 365i hosting plan.
Your existing site stays live throughout the transfer. Visitors won't notice a thing while everything is copied across in the background.
Move as many websites as you need. One site or a hundred, it makes no difference. The Migration Centre is free with every hosting plan.
Start a migration whenever you want. No appointments, no support tickets, no booking slots. Log in, enter your credentials, and go.
Queue up all your sites from a single provider and migrate them in one batch. Ideal for agencies or resellers moving client sites across.
Migration tooling that runs every day across the wider 20i hosting platform behind 365i. It handles WordPress, Joomla, Drupal, custom PHP sites, and more.
Move from any host using cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, or WordPress, plus UK providers like Fasthosts and Heart Internet. Windows / IIS hosting needs a manual transfer.
Every file on your hosting account is transferred automatically. HTML, PHP, images, uploads, themes, plugins; the full directory structure, intact.
MySQL databases are transferred table by table, row by row. Everything lands exactly as it was on your old host, ready to go.
Your email messages and folders sync via IMAP, preserving your mailbox history during the move. Contacts and calendars are separate and may need export/import or provider-specific migration support.
Wow!!!! This guy goes above and beyond for anyone!! Must admit, I never really knew his limits but I can honestly say that without this amazing web page, I would be struggling!! Thankyou so much, I love it!!!
Thank you so much Lena! 😁
Excellent service and technically brilliant. Would not hesitate to recommend.
Mark responded twice to my issue raised within 15 minutes. He was accurate and helped resolve my issue with the DNS records not accepting a CNAME for the root.
I'm happy we got it sorted quickly for you. Smart site you've created!
Absolutely brilliant. Great value hosting and very high quality, but the support you get from Mark is second to none, he will literally bend over backwards to help you, even at silly o'clock on weekends. You just won't get this level of support anywhere else. And he really knows his stuff.
The best support I've ever experienced. I've raised a couple of tickets while moving a domain across from another provider, and Mark went above and beyond in dealing with them, patiently assisting where I'd made mistakes and explaining alternatives. It's remarkable, I won't hesitate to recommend 365i, and will be moving other domains over as soon as I can.
It's always a pleasure to help and we've been enjoying the challenges your recent helpdesk tickets have presented. Really appreciate your taking time to leave such a glowing review. Thanks Nigel!
Awesome hosting service, customer support second to none with dedicated UK based team, highly recommend to agency and business owners
Thanks Johnny! Great to have you with us!
Exceptional Website Development Experience! Working with Mark was an absolute pleasure. He understood our vision for the Grange Transport website and brought it to life beautifully. His attention to detail, creativity, and responsiveness throughout the entire process was outstanding. The final result was a modern, user-friendly site that perfectly reflects our brand and has already received fantastic feedback from our clients and staff. We couldn’t be happier and highly recommend his services to anyone looking for top-notch website development! Thank you Mark!
Great service, very friendly and knowledgeable. Mark has the patience to explain to those of us who don't speak tech! Would recommend.
Oh thank you Peta. Much appreciated
Four steps. A few minutes. Your entire site transferred with zero downtime.
Select the control panel or hosting platform you're moving from. The Migration Centre supports cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, WordPress, and more.
If your current host uses a different panel, there's a generic option that works with most Linux-based setups too.
Type in the login details for your current hosting account. This is usually your username and password, or an API key if your host supports it.
The Migration Centre uses these credentials once to access your files, databases, and email. They're never stored after the transfer completes.
The Migration Centre scans your existing hosting account and lists every website it finds. Tick the ones you want to move, or select all of them.
This is useful if you only want to migrate some sites now and leave others for later. You can come back and run the tool again any time.
Click migrate and the tool does the rest. Files, databases, and email are all copied across automatically. You can close the browser and come back later.
Once it's done, preview your site on a temporary URL to check everything looks right. Then update your domain's DNS to point to 365i, and you're live.
Most hosts help with migrations, but they do it manually and limit how many times they'll do it for free. The 365i Migration Centre is self-service, automatic, and always free.
| Feature | 365i Migration Centre | Traditional Migration |
|---|---|---|
| Automatic transfers | Yes | No |
| Start in minutes | Yes | No |
| Import email mailboxes | Yes | No |
| Always free | Yes | No |
| Anytime migrations | Yes | No |
| Bulk transfers | Yes | No |
| Self-service | Yes | No |
The Migration Centre copies everything in the background while your current site keeps running. Your visitors won't notice a thing. Once the transfer is complete, a simple DNS update points your domain to 365i.
Smaller WordPress sites often transfer in under an hour. Larger sites, ecommerce stores, and accounts with multiple sites take longer. For ecommerce or membership sites that take orders around the clock, we time the final database sync so no orders are lost.
The Migration Centre is included free with every hosting plan. Pick the one that fits your needs.
Nothing. Website migration is completely free with every 365i hosting plan. There are no hidden fees, no per-site charges, and no limits on how many sites you can migrate. The Migration Centre is a self-service tool built into your control panel, so you can run migrations whenever you need to.
Yes. The Migration Centre supports WordPress sites and any Linux-based hosting environment. It works with cPanel, Plesk, DirectAdmin, and standard WordPress installs. It transfers files, databases, and email mailboxes (messages and folders) automatically. Contacts and calendars are separate and may need export/import support. Windows-based hosting (IIS) is not supported for automated migration.
Your existing website stays live on your old host throughout the entire transfer. The Migration Centre copies everything to your new 365i hosting account in the background, so most sites switch over with no visible downtime once you update DNS. For ecommerce and membership sites that take orders around the clock, we time the final database sync so no orders are lost between the copy and the DNS switch.
Smaller WordPress sites often transfer in under an hour. Larger sites, ecommerce stores, and accounts with big databases or multiple sites take longer; the process is fully automatic so you can leave it running. You'll receive a notification when it's done, and you can preview your site on a temporary URL before switching DNS.
Use our free DNS Lookup tool to confirm your domain's records are now pointing to 365i, and our HTTPS Inspector to check your SSL certificate is in place and the site is loading over a secure connection. Your hosting account also has an uptime dashboard that flags any post-migration issues.
For unusual configurations or setups the automated tool can't handle, our support team can assist with manual migration. Just open a support ticket and we'll work through it with you. Complex setups like multi-server environments or custom application stacks may need a hands-on approach, but we'll get you moved across.
Yes. The Migration Centre supports bulk transfers. You can queue up all your sites from a single provider and migrate them in one batch. This is particularly useful for agencies or anyone managing multiple client sites who wants to move everything across in one go.
No. If you prefer to move your site manually via FTP, phpMyAdmin, or any other method, you're welcome to do so. The Migration Centre is there to make things easier, but it's entirely optional. Some developers prefer the control of a manual transfer, and that's fine too.
Pick a hosting plan and use the free Migration Centre to move your sites. Preview on a temporary URL, then switch DNS when you're happy.
