DirektHost Migration Service
Without Unnecessary Risks

Migration Should Not Be the Hard Part

Often, a business knows it needs a better hosting environment, but delays changing providers for one simple reason: moving everything seems complicated.

Websites & Databases.
Websites must be transferred, databases moved, and email archives preserved intact.
DNS & Continuity.
DNS records must be updated safely, avoiding data loss and minimizing service disruption.

For someone who doesn’t perform server migrations daily, the process can feel risky. For us, it is standard routine.

DirektHost.eu is operated by DOW MEDIA SRL, an EU-based technology company active in web services and hosting since 2004 — bringing over 22 years of hands-on experience in server and data administration.

Complete Transfer

What Can We Migrate?

Websites

Business websites, portals, landing pages, and web applications transferred with required configurations.

WordPress

WordPress installations migrated complete with database, media files, plugins, themes, and settings.

WooCommerce

Online stores handled with extra care to ensure live orders and customer data remain synchronised.

Databases

Databases used by websites and applications transferred subject to technical platform compatibility.

Email Accounts

Mailboxes and existing message archives transferred when the current environment provides suitable access.

Multiple Websites

Managing 10, 20, or more websites? We review the complete environment and consolidate them onto one Cloud service.

Domains & DNS

Domains can remain with your current registrar while pointing to DirektHost DNS, or be transferred directly to our management.

No Guesswork

First We Review. Then We Move.

Not all hosting environments are configured the same way. We do not start a migration without first understanding what needs to be transferred. Before migrating, we review:

Number of domains Number of websites Technologies used Storage usage Databases Email accounts Email storage volume PHP versions Application requirements CPU & RAM usage

You don’t need to guess how many vCPU or GB RAM you need.

Send us your current hosting details and we will analyze the requirements together.

Step-by-Step Process

How the Migration Process Works

1
Tell Us About Your Current Setup
Send us the details of your current environment. Useful information includes:
Current provider Hosting plan Number of websites Storage used Number of email accounts Control panel
2
We Review the Infrastructure
We evaluate technical requirements and identify any special considerations, such as large email archives, specific PHP requirements, or active e-commerce stores.
3
We Recommend the Appropriate DirektHost Service
We recommend a suitable plan based on your existing setup — Cloud Hosting (e.g. Cloud 8, Cloud 12, Cloud 24) for performance, or Cloud Storage if capacity is your primary need.
4
We Prepare the New Environment
The new DirektHost environment is configured before data transfer, ensuring everything is ready prior to pointing DNS.
5
We Transfer the Data
Depending on the agreed scope, we transfer your websites, databases, mailboxes, files, and server configurations.
6
We Check the New Environment
Before switching DNS, we verify website rendering, database connections, application behavior, SSL status, and mail configuration.
7
DNS Is Moved to the New Infrastructure
Once verified, domains are directed to the new DirektHost infrastructure. DNS propagation follows standard network timings.

Our Goal: Minimise Disruption

We prefer realistic expectations. Some complex environments involving active database writes require planned coordination, but our objective is clear:

Plan the migration carefully to minimise impact on your websites, business operations, and users.

For complex online stores or high-traffic applications, we schedule migration steps at optimal off-peak windows.

Email Migration

For many companies, email archives are even more critical than websites. Years of corporate correspondence, invoices, and documents are stored in mailboxes. Useful details prior to email migration include:

Number of mailboxes Total storage volume Mail protocols (IMAP/POP3) Current server access

For extensive email archives, our Cloud Storage range provides generous capacity tailored for large mailbox requirements.

Consolidate Your Infrastructure

Consolidate Multiple Hosting Accounts

Over time, businesses often end up with multiple hosting subscriptions across different providers. Migration provides an opportunity to simplify your infrastructure.

Reached account or resource limits?
Move from restrictive shared plans to a dedicated Cloud environment with resources to spare.
Escalating costs from fragmented accounts?
Consolidate your websites, domains, and mailboxes into a single Managed Cloud account.

Instead of multiple fragmented packages, manage everything in one Managed Cloud environment.

Where Are You Moving From?

From Shared Hosting or a VPS to DirektHost

Currently on Shared Hosting?

From Shared Hosting to Cloud Hosting

You don’t need to manage a server yourself to get dedicated resources. DirektHost Managed Cloud Hosting includes dedicated CPU, RAM, control panel, initial setup, server administration, monitoring, updates, external backup, SSL, and technical support.

You manage your websites. We manage the server.

Currently Running a VPS?

From Another VPS to DirektHost

If you no longer want to act as your own sysadmin, we review your current VPS setup and migrate services to a DirektHost Managed environment. Details on OS, control panel, running services, disk usage, and databases help us replicate your setup smoothly.

The more context we have on your existing VPS, the better we can plan your migration.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you migrate my WordPress website?

In many cases, yes. The migration can include website files and the database, subject to access and technical compatibility.

Can you migrate WooCommerce?

Yes, but active online stores require more careful planning because orders and database information can change during the migration.

Can you migrate email?

In many cases, yes. The exact method depends on the current service and the type of access available.

Do I have to transfer my domain?

No. Your domain can remain with your existing registrar and simply point to the DirektHost infrastructure.

Can I lose email during migration?

Email migration should be planned carefully. Where technically possible, synchronisation and DNS timing are used to minimise risks.

Will my website be offline?

Our objective is to minimise disruption. In many cases, the new service can be prepared and verified before changing DNS records.

How do I know which DirektHost plan I need?

You do not need to decide alone. Send us information about your existing hosting and we will review the requirements with you.

Can you migrate several websites?

Yes. Customers with multiple websites are particularly relevant for our Managed Cloud hosting model.

Can I migrate from a VPS?

Potentially, yes. We first need to review the existing server, software, and technical requirements.

Do I need to order before contacting you?

No. For migrations, we prefer that you contact us first so we can review your requirements.

Postponing Your Migration Because It Seems Complicated?

Do not move anything yet. First, tell us what you have.

We will review your existing setup, discuss the resources you need, and determine whether DirektHost can provide a suitable environment. No automated ordering required and no pressure to migrate before the technical fit is clear.
