Par défaut Changing Server - Will it mess me up?

Hi All,
We're pushing the limits of our current hosting package and _may_ need
to migrate to another server with new I.P. address etc etc.

I'm a little worried as to whether this will mess up current S.E. positions?
I know our web site is very space hungry as it's not database driven but
currently it still does what we want and serves us well.

I can scrape back a bit of space from the accumulated junk, but will
still be pushing it.

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated as always.
Cheers
Pete

Nope shouldn't. If you get it all done smoothly. Load all the files to the
new host then switch the DNS, once the DNS migrates over because you are
already loaded up on the other host then it will be an almost seamless
transgression.

Then you need to switch if it is causing problems. Or upgrade the one you
have. What do you have now and what are you looking for?

Thank you, and you are very welcome also.

Not at all. I recently moved hosts and the only change that I noticed
was the increase of visitors

Just keep the old one open for a few days for the DNS to migrate.

I phoned them earlier and we've currently gobbled our way through 850 MB
of the 800MB package :¬( Lots is taken up with .pdf files
(Manufacturers product specific) and was told that realistically to go
above 1GB we'd have to move servers to take up a re-seller package.

Cost isn't really a big issue we currently pay £125 for the following
http://your-name-here.co.uk/hosting-...d-package.html
(800MB, 20GB/month etc etc.)

The next package is £240/year for 5GB, 2 x I.P. adds. and more bandwidth
that I could shake a stick at.
http://your-name-here.co.uk/prohosting.html

A bit of a sledgehammer>walnut scenario, but if it all went smoothly I
guess it leaves plenty of room for the future.

Wouldn't really want to be penalized for duplicate sites should anyone
come knocking during the switch-over.
:¬(

Visitors will be directed to the site by the DNS servers. You set up
duplicates on the new host, get it all going, point the name servers
at it (and thus away from the old host) and away you go. You can
robots.txt out everything from your new one while you're setting it
up, and to be extry extry carefull don't use a browser equipped with
anything like the Google bar of the Yahoo bar, anything that'll
gleefully phone home telling tales about duplicate content in fact,
while you're doing it.
Unlikely that would be a problem, but I thought you'd wonder if I
didn't say.

Sorry Bill, I think you are not quite understanding the phase of the DNS and
changing them. Only one will show at one time as it migrates you might get
one or the other. This does not read as duplicate pages. It is still the
index page or what ever file page the bot is looking at. There is no need to
robot.txt anything really and when everything hasn't migrated over, the new
DNS will not show your index(or whatever) page anyway at the same time as
the old DNS.

Thanks!:-)

It also s to be able to have control over changing your DNS yourself
also. As we found out when you can get a hold of the host you are changing
from and wanting to do a transfer also....which is different from a
DNS/hosting change.:-)

I suppose he refers to the moment when new content is seen under some
other address - it must be accessible somehow in the set up phase so that
you could check if it works on the new site.

At my host I can access my doman through the account name at the host
domain (like bpp.home.pl - configured now by me to be redirected to
bb.com.pl, but for several years it was visible under both addresses).
Assuming I am moving other site to new host and it can be accessed as
example.com (at old host) and as example.mynewhost .com (not assigned
through DNS to example.com domain, nonetheless visible on the web) it can
be seen as duplicate content. But as BB pointed out it is not that
difficult to avoid any problems blocking spiders through robots.txt

Thanks Borek. Not difficult to work out if you actually read what I

Ah, well one shouldn't suppose that.:-) Yes, usually you can access a site
in that form. But the way I understood it to be is from the natural way of
coming to the main domain. Of course there wouldn't be any need for the site
the natural way.

I have changed DNS and hostings quite a few times. Not once did the
alternate way get indexed or was a problem. But hey, many people do this and
also do not have any problems. Even did a few transfers in my time, they
seem to be the worst nightmare. They normally end up getting cancelled as
the contact will not OK the transfer of the registry and it takes a week or
more if they are twiddling their thumbs. So now I am the contact for all
moves which makes it a lot simpler. I like to keep it simple.:-)

Of course not that I enjoy uploading complete sites BTW. :-) I have done
complete moves one my own without the of the hosting provider (as I am
now one myself) to 4 sites. Each done quickly and smoothly. I don't even
think I waited 24 hours for them to migrate over. The best way to get a job
done is to do it yourself.:-) Although it was a pain copying them all and
loading them up.

OT on the server business. :-) I got the new IE7. Hubby had it on our new
laptop. But I only seen it for a little bit before he left to the sand pit.
The stupid thing removed all my passwords to access my sites. Good thing I
can recover them.:-) Also took me some playing around to find the favorites
and internet options. I really don't like the way when you pick a favorite
in a folder and you have several sites in that folder it wants to open all
those bloody sites up in the tabs. A waste of time as it slows down the
computer some. I don't even want to try and open my folder.:-) On the plus
side I have the big 3 SEs in my toolbar.

Ah, I knew Borek was wrong at what you meant. The new site can only be seen
via the hosting's special way(not the real domain name). The site and it's
files can not be accessed through the normal files. When you type in
example.com it will only show through the server that the DNS points to,
period! There are other ways of testing and viewing sites.:-)

Old site has the DNS pointing at it. The new site doesn't - yet - but
it still exists and has the same content. Would you move one site from
one set of servers to another without doing any testing of dynamic
elements?

I read what you wrote Bill and one can not assume you meant to view the site
with the other address other than the natural domain. You didn't specify
accessing through another address.

Well cool got it figured out how to open the folder instead of it doing the
tabs. Good grief those buttons are touchy!:-)

I think he was talking about upgrading... But perhaps to talk was all he
did

He couldn't afford it and he wasn't deserving of them to get it the cheaper
way.:-)
