CHANGING TO THE RIGHT WEB HOSTING PROVIDER IS NOT HARD TO DO

Change is inevitable, particularly in a business experiencing growth. Even online, growth can trigger a need for change, especially in the area of Web hosting. Either your current Web hosting provider is not performing the way you expected, or they cannot meet your hosting requirements anymore. Regardless, you need to transfer your Web site from your current Web hosting provider to a new Web hosting provider. Consider the following steps for a smooth transition from old company to new.

Plan the transfer of your files at least a month before you plan the switch by backing up all of your current files. Remember to backup any script files, database files, and server log files in addition to all the HTML files. Once you have saved your files, your new Web hosting company will notify you when you can start uploading your files.

Upon receiving the notification from the new Web hosting company, you can then upload all files, installed scripts and databases. Now, you are ready to test your Web site using a temporary URL supplied by the hosting company. In testing your Web site, make sure to verify all scripts are functioning, as well as hyperlinks going to the correct Web page. Once you have finished with testing and verifying your Web site, you can then transfer your domain name. If you don't have the technical know-how or experience in transferring and testing your Web site yourself, contact a BannerView.com E-Business Expert for assistance in this process.

When transferring your domain name, you should contact the company where you registered your domain name to direct the old Domain Name Servers to the new Web hosting provider's Domain Name Servers. The change (commonly referred to as "propagation") may take up to three days to take effect throughout the entire Internet. If you have a dynamic Web site with databases, you'll want to transfer the latest copy of the database from the old Web host to the new Web host. It is suggested that you test your Web site for the last time before you terminate your old Web hosting account.

Speaking of changes, BannerView.com E-Business Solutions is pleased to offer two new services in addition to current Web Site Hosting & Maintenance Plans.
