Ultra's in-house migration team has spent 23 years moving sites onto our platform. cPanel transfers, WordPress installs, custom LAMP stacks, control-panel oddities. They have seen it, they have fixed it, and they will walk you through anything you want to confirm before, during, or after the move.

The migration service applies to any host. Customers have moved sites onto Ultra Web Hosting from DreamHost, A2 Hosting, Hostinger, InMotion, Liquid Web, Namecheap, IONOS (1&1), iPage, regional providers, on-premise servers, and home-built LAMP stacks. If your current host uses a non-cPanel control panel (Plesk, DirectAdmin, ISPmanager, Webmin, or something proprietary), mention it in the migration request and the team will plan around it. Live chat or contact the team for a quick read on your specific setup before you sign up.
Want to manage your hosting and domain registration in one place? You can transfer your domain to Ultra at the same time as the site move. Three small steps at your current registrar, and the domain comes with you.
Find the "domain lock" or "registrar lock" setting in your existing registrar's dashboard and turn it off.
This is a one-time transfer code your current registrar will email or display in the control panel.
Paste the EPP code into your migration ticket. We initiate the transfer and add a full year to your registration at no extra charge.

Switching web hosts shouldn't be stressful or complicated. Ultra Web Hosting will migrate your website, databases, email accounts, and domain name to our platform completely free when you sign up for an annual or longer hosting plan. Our migration specialists handle everything so you don't have to touch a single file.
Since 2002, we've helped thousands of website owners move to faster, more reliable hosting with zero downtime. Whether you're running a small business site, a WordPress blog, or a growing ecommerce store, our team has the experience to get you up and running quickly. cPanel transfers, account backups, FTP, MySQL, MariaDB, phpMyAdmin: you name it, they have done it. Most accounts move in under an hour. Larger ones take up to twelve.
Migration is free with annual or longer hosting plan orders. Customers on monthly billing can purchase a one-time migration as a paid service. Either way, the same team handles it, and the same playbook applies: your old site stays live, we copy everything over, you verify it on our platform, then we flip DNS. If you want a second opinion before you sign up, start a live chat and one of our agents will walk you through your specific setup.
Most websites are migrated within 1 to 12 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the account. Smaller sites with a single database can be done in under an hour. We send you an email as soon as the transfer is complete so you know when to check it.
No. Your site stays live on your current host throughout the entire migration. We copy everything over to our servers first, and we only switch DNS after you have had a chance to verify that everything is working correctly. Your visitors will not notice a thing.
Yes. Website migrations are free for cPanel accounts under 1GB in size with fewer than 5 databases, and they are included with any annual or longer hosting plan. Larger sites may have a small fee based on account size, and we will let you know before we start. Customers on monthly billing can purchase a one-time migration as a paid service.
We need your current host's control panel URL, your login username and password, and your FTP hostname or IP address with credentials. Submit all of this through a support ticket after you sign up. Leave your old hosting account active until we confirm the migration is done.
Absolutely. We migrate your entire WordPress installation including themes, plugins, media uploads, and the database. We also optimize your wp-config.php settings for our servers so your site runs as fast as possible. This works with WooCommerce stores, Elementor sites, and any other WordPress setup. Check out our WordPress hosting plans for the best performance after migration.
Yes. For cPanel-to-cPanel transfers, all of your email accounts, forwarders, and autoresponders are included automatically. If your previous host does not use cPanel, email migration may require some manual setup, but our support team will walk you through it.
You can. Unlock your domain at your current registrar, grab the EPP authorization code, and include it with your transfer request. Domain transfers add one year to your existing registration. This lets you manage hosting and your domain name from a single control panel.
We can migrate from any cPanel host, Plesk, DirectAdmin, and most Linux-based hosting environments. We also handle manual FTP transfers from just about any provider. The one exception is closed platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and Shopify, since those do not allow file-level access to your site.
Your original site is never modified or deleted during the process. If anything comes up, your website keeps running on your previous host while we sort it out. Our support team is available 24/7 to help at any point during the transfer.
No, and we actually recommend that you do not. Keep your old account active until we have confirmed everything is transferred and you have had a chance to test your site on our platform. Once you are satisfied that everything looks good, then go ahead and cancel with your previous provider.
Pick a hosting plan, open a migration ticket, and we will have you live on Ultra in hours, not days. Free with any annual plan.
