Free website migration.
Our engineers move it for you.
Moving from another host? Order Rivervo hosting, write to us, and our team moves your site, its databases and email. Your current site keeps working until the domain is switched.
- Website files: WordPress, another CMS or your own code
- Databases (MySQL / MariaDB)
- Mailboxes, if your email moves too
- DNS records, so nothing is lost at the switch
- Cron jobs, PHP version and settings you tell us about
Prefer to do it yourself? Our step-by-step guides cover WordPress, databases and email.
How free migration works
Migration to Rivervo is done by our team on request — there is no automatic import button. You order the hosting your site will live on, open a ticket from the panel and tell us the site address, where it is hosted now, what it runs on and whether email is involved. An engineer replies with what is possible for your site and the next steps.
Your current site stays online the whole time. We copy it to Rivervo, you check the new copy, and only then is the domain pointed at Rivervo. Old hosting should stay active for a few days after the switch, until you are sure everything works.
Business email has its own self-service import: it copies mail from Gmail, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Yahoo or any IMAP server. Mailboxes that come with the hosting can be moved by our team as part of the migration.
A move without surprises.
An engineer, not a script — and your site keeps working while it happens.
Done by an engineer
A person looks at your site and moves it, including the unusual parts.
Free of charge
Migration costs nothing with Rivervo hosting.
Check before the switch
You see the new copy working before the domain moves.
No passwords in chat
We ask for access only when it's needed. Change those passwords once the move is done.
Databases and email
Files, databases and mailboxes move together, as one site.
Your domain stays yours
Keep the domain where it is, or transfer it to Rivervo separately.
Four steps to your site on Rivervo.
Monthly hosting plans start with 45 free days, so you can move and test before you pay.
- 1
Order hosting
Choose a plan for the site. Create → Website in the Rivervo panel.
- 2
Write to us
Help → Write to us, pick the website. Tell us the address, the current host and what the site runs on.
- 3
We copy the site
An engineer asks for the access needed and copies files, databases and, if you want, email.
- 4
Check and switch
You check the new copy, then the domain is pointed at Rivervo. Keep the old hosting for a few days.
What to have ready
Having these at hand makes the move faster.
- Access to your current host: a control panel login, or SFTP and database access, or a full backup file
- Access to where your domain's DNS is managed, to point the domain at Rivervo when the copy is ready
- A list of anything unusual: cron jobs, a specific PHP version or extensions, email forwarders, external services
Keep your passwords safe
Don't paste passwords for your old host into the first message. Wait until the team asks for access.
Change those passwords once the move is finished.
