Switching from another host provider

The process of changing host providers is simple and can be accomplished with minimal hassle and downtime provided these steps are followed in order.

Step One

Open a New RawData Hosting Account

  • Open a new hosting account.
  • Upload your Web site to your new account on our server using an FTP program.
  • Using our online Control Panel, set-up email accounts for each person in your organization.
Step Two

Make the switch

Contact your current Registrar and have then change the Name Server setting for your Domain Name to point to our Web Server:

  • ns1.rawdata.net
  • ns2.rawdata.net
Step Three

Close your old account

It takes time for your new Domain Name settings to take effect with your Registrar. After approximately 24-28 hours your Domain Name should be pointing to our RawData Hosting Web Servers. After this period you can safely close your old account. The switch is complete and RawData Hosting is now serving your site.
