Hosted in the Netherlands · Fully GDPR-compliant · Free migration from your current host
Free migration

Switch hosts. We’ll move everything for you.

Website, databases, email, DNS and SSL — not just the homepage. Your current site stays online the whole time; we only switch over once you’ve reviewed the new one and signed off. Free on every plan.

What we move

Everything comes across — configured and tested.

Not a half-copy of your homepage. The whole site, the data behind it, and the email that keeps your business running.

Website & files

Every page, theme, plugin and upload — copied exactly as they are, with nothing left behind.

Databases

MySQL and MariaDB moved intact — orders, posts, users and settings all preserved.

Email

Onto Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace — mailboxes, contacts and rules, with SPF, DKIM and DMARC configured.

DNS records

Every record recreated on Maxinodes DNS before cut-over — A, MX, TXT, CNAME, the lot.

SSL certificates

HTTPS stays on. Free SSL is issued and renewed automatically, so the padlock never drops.

Redirects & cron jobs

Your URL redirects and scheduled tasks move too, so nothing silently stops working after the switch.

Everything, configured and tested on our infrastructure — not just the homepage.

How it works

We do the work. You just approve it.

Four steps, two of them yours: you review the new site, and you pick the moment we switch over. We handle the rest.

1
Typically day 0

Tell us about your site

Send a link and read-only access to your current host. We reply the same day with a plan — no obligation.

2
Typically day 1

We build & test a full copy

Files, database and email settings cloned to a private staging copy on our servers. Your live site is untouched.

3
When you’re ready

You review and approve

Click through the staged copy, test forms and checkout. We fix anything you flag before going any further.

4
A time you pick

We switch DNS

You pick the window. Your old site stays live until the moment we switch — and we stay on-call for 24 hours after.

This is a typical timeline — most sites are ready within a day. Larger or more complex sites can take longer, and we’ll tell you up front, never after.

Worried it’ll go offline?

Here’s exactly why it won’t.

We never “flip a switch” and hope. We build a complete copy of your site on our infrastructure first, you review it, and only then — at a time you choose — do we point your domain at the new one. DNS can take a few hours to update worldwide, and because both copies are live during that window, visitors always land on a working site, never an error page.

Your old site Keeps serving every visitor — from start to finish, and after cut-over until DNS fully updates. Online throughout
Your new site Built and tested on staging → you approve it → DNS switches at your chosen window. Build · test · switch

We only ever read from your current host — nothing there is changed or deleted. If you ever wanted to walk it back, your original is exactly where you left it.

Where you’re coming from

Whatever you’re on now, we’ve moved it before.

Shared hosting, a VPS, another cPanel host, a developer’s server or a site builder — the move works the same way, and it’s free on both our Self-Managed line and our fully Managed line.

On shared hosting

Beget, Reg.ru, Hostinger, GoDaddy, Bluehost and the rest — we’ve moved sites off all of them. You get dedicated resources and a stack tuned for speed.

On a VPS or your own server

Tired of being your own sysadmin? We lift your sites onto managed cPanel and take the updates, backups and security off your plate.

On another cPanel host

A like-for-like move is the simplest of all — your accounts, databases and email come straight across with everything in place.

On WordPress.com, Wix or a builder

Moving to real, portable hosting frees you from platform limits. Send us a link and we’ll tell you honestly what can come across before you commit.

Why switch to Maxinodes

Worth the move — and you don’t lift a finger to get there.

EU data centres & GDPR

Hosted in the Netherlands on Worldstream, under EU jurisdiction. Encrypted backups stay within the EU/EEA — no transfer to third countries.

LiteSpeed speed

A WordPress-tuned LiteSpeed stack with caching configured per site — pages that load quickly, out of the box.

Server-level security

Server-level protection scanning for malware and blocking attacks, working quietly in the background.

Automatic daily backups

Daily backups with a 30-day history on Managed, stored in the EU, with one-click restore when you need it.

No setup fees, no lock-in

Month-to-month, cancel any time, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. No setup fees, ever.

What we need from you

Three small things. That’s really it.

No long forms, no homework. If anything below isn’t obvious, we’ll walk you through it step by step.

A link to your current site

So we can see what you’re running and confirm the move before we start.

Access to your host or registrar

Read-only credentials to your current host — or we’ll guide you through getting them.

Which email you use

Tell us where your mail lives today so we can move it cleanly and keep your reputation intact.

One honest note: a free migration isn’t a free rebuild. Your site should be working on its current host before we start — we’ll flag anything that’s already broken.

Free on every plan

Migration costs nothing.

It’s included on every plan — whether you run it yourself on Self-Managed or hand the whole thing to us on Managed. No setup fee, 30-day money-back, cancel any time. Compare plans →

Common questions

Migration, plainly answered.

Yes — free migration is included on every paid plan, Self-Managed and Managed alike, with no setup fee. Tell us where your site lives now and we handle the move end-to-end. There is no catch: it is part of joining us.
Near-zero downtime. Your current site keeps serving every visitor the whole time — we build and test a full copy on our infrastructure first. Nothing changes for your visitors until you have reviewed it and signed off. Only then do we switch DNS, in a window you choose, and we stay on-call for 24 hours afterward.
Usually within one business day once we have access. Larger or more complex sites can take longer — if so, we tell you up front, not after. We will never promise an exact time we cannot keep.
No. We migrate your email onto Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace — mailboxes, contacts and rules — and configure SPF, DKIM and DMARC on your domain so your sending reputation is preserved. Your email then runs independently of your hosting.
In almost every case, yes. We have moved sites from shared hosting, VPSes, other cPanel hosts, developers’ servers and site builders. If a platform locks your files away, we will tell you honestly what can and cannot come across before you commit — send us a link and we will check.
We recreate every DNS record on our infrastructure before cut-over, then switch your domain over at the time you pick. DNS can take a few hours to update worldwide, and because both the old and new copies are live during that window, visitors always land on a working site — never an error page.
Yes. We migrate WordPress and WooCommerce stores, Magento and PrestaShop shops, Joomla and Drupal sites, and custom Laravel or Symfony apps. For bigger sites we plan the move carefully and keep you informed at each step. A free migration is not a free rebuild, though — your site should be working on its current host before we start, and we will flag anything that is already broken.
Yes. You do not need to cancel your old host first. Keep it running until you are happy with the new site — we only ever read from it, nothing there is changed or deleted. Confirm everything has moved, then cancel on your own schedule.
Yes. Our stack is WordPress-tuned (LiteSpeed with caching configured per site) and runs every common CMS and e-commerce platform. We test plugins, the checkout and forms on staging before cut-over, and fix anything you flag.
