How we move your app to your own server.
Four steps, usually done within a week. Your current app stays live the whole time, and you approve each stage before the next begins.
The migration, step by step
Free audit
1 business dayYou send a link to your app and tell us which builder you used. We look at the code, the database, logins, file storage, payments and any outside services it calls.
You get a short written report: what moves as it is, what needs replacing, and which server size fits.
Fixed quote
Same day as the auditThe report comes with one price for the whole job. It does not change once you accept it, even if the work takes us longer than planned.
You create a hosting account in your own name. We walk you through it, and it takes about ten minutes.
Trial move
2 to 4 daysWe set up the server, move a copy of your code and data, and run the app at a private address. Your live app is untouched.
You click through the trial copy and confirm it behaves as it should. If we cannot make it work, you pay nothing.
Switch and handover
About 1 hour, no downtimeAt a time you choose, we copy the latest data across and point your domain at the new server. Visitors see the same app at the same address.
You receive every login and a written guide, followed by 30 days of support.
What we set up on your server
A standard, well-documented setup that any developer will recognise. Nothing proprietary, and nothing that ties you to us.
- A hardened Linux server. Firewall, key-only login and automatic security updates.
- Your app and database. Running as services that restart on their own if they stop.
- SSL on your domain. Certificates issued and renewed automatically.
- Nightly backups. Stored off the server, with a tested way to restore them.
- Deploys from GitHub. Push a change and it goes live, with no manual steps.
- Uptime alerts. An email to you if the app stops responding.
What we need from you
About an hour of your time across the week.
- Access to your project in the builder you used, so we can export it.
- A hosting account in your name. We help you create it.
- Access to your domain settings, or ten minutes on a call to change them together.
- A test of the trial copy before we switch.
One fixed price. Paid once.
A migration is a one-time job, so we charge for it once. After that you pay only your server provider. If the trial move does not work, you pay nothing.
