HOW IT WORKS?
You’re Four Simple Steps Away From
migrating your website to a new platform.
FOUR STEPS. TOO SIMPLE.
Here’s What We’re Doing. And How We’re Doing It.
1
Migrate any website
that has a CMS or does not (html).
Website data migration starts small. Simply provide your existing and new sites details if you know them:
Select your current CMS / forum system if you have one
Submit your website address.
If you haven’t installed the new destination platform yet, CMS2CMS has a solution for you. You can test the migration process using our test website. FREE. This way, you can evaluate both: the platform and the migration work.
2
Set up your migration easily, with peace of mind.
Once we know your target system, for example, WordPress – information about your existing and new websites – we establish a connection between the two platform using our proprietary Connection Bridge. This is a special access gateway for safe and fast data transfer. In plain words, this is the file that should be uploaded to the root directory of your website. After that, you may map out your website entities and select additional super useful options for even more accurate data migration.
3
