          The Company offers a variety of migration services like , website migration, server migration, shopping cart migration, static website migration and database migration.
         Movemysite.com claims to have experts who have enabled organizations to migrate, manage and archive enterprise content. They also provide pre and post migration support services.

Before you transfer the domain name you should get the site up and running (as much as possible) on the new server. This way you can test it thoroughly and make sure everything is working before taking the plunge. It also means the transfer will be more or less transparent for end users. If you do it carefully, no one will notice the transfer and you won't lose any visitors.

You will obviously need the website files to do this. There are several ways to acquire the files:

* You may already have them on your local hard drive, especially if you are the designer/developer of the site.
