Move your domain, with nothing going offline.
Switching host or domain is delicate – one wrong record and your site or mail is gone. I plan the move so no one even notices it happened.
← All servicesA domain migration or host switch is one of the most common reasons websites suddenly go offline. The cause: DNS propagation takes time, and if records are transferred incorrectly or nameservers are switched too early, gaps appear – for visitors and for email delivery alike.
The solution isn't guesswork, it's a clean plan: lower TTLs early, document and replicate every record exactly, and only switch nameservers once the new host is fully configured. I know the process, make it transparent and walk you through every step.
- The move is planned before anything is changed
- Website stays reachable, mail keeps flowing
- DNS records transferred cleanly and verified
- The right TTL and timing strategy
- Post-migration checks that everything works
- Clear guidance instead of flying blind
- I document all of your domain's current DNS records – A, MX, CNAME, TXT, SPF, DKIM, DMARC.
- I lower the TTL values early so that any changes propagate quickly worldwide when it's time.
- I set up all records identically at the new host and verify everything before touching a single nameserver.
- Nameserver switch, propagation check, sign-off – and you get a short summary of what lives where.
- Freelancers and small businesses switching hosts without wanting any downtime risk
- Companies migrating domains after a website relaunch
- Anyone who had a bad experience with their last host switch
- Those changing their domain registrar and wanting the auth-code transfer to go smoothly
Will anything go offline during a domain migration?
Not if the migration is planned correctly. I lower the TTL values in advance, replicate all DNS records at the new host, and only switch nameservers once everything is ready. Your website stays reachable throughout and emails keep flowing.
How does a host switch work?
First I document all your existing DNS records. Then I set up the same records at the new host, verify everything, lower the TTL, and only then switch the nameservers. After that I check that everything resolves as expected.
What happens to my emails?
Emails travel via MX records. I transfer them along with SPF, DKIM and DMARC to the new host before the nameserver switch goes live. That way no emails are lost during or after the migration.
How long does a migration take?
The preparation itself usually takes one to two hours. DNS changes propagate worldwide anywhere from a few minutes to 24 hours depending on the previous TTL setting. I stay with you through the whole process and let you know once everything is stable.
