cPanel and Plesk migrations are not complicated when you know what you are doing. They are complicated when the person doing it is working from a tutorial rather than experience.
Every migration I deliver is scoped in writing before a single file moves, tested in full before cutover, and handed over with complete documentation of everything that was built. Your websites, email, databases, and DNS move intact. What you leave behind is the annual licence bill.
The full scope of what is included and excluded is below. If your situation does not fit neatly into this — multiple servers, legacy applications, unusual mail setup — mention it in your consultation and I will scope it accurately.
What is included:
- Assessment of your current cPanel/Plesk environment
- New server provisioning (Debian 12, NGINX, PHP 8.2/8.3, ISPConfig)
- Migration of all website files, MySQL/MariaDB databases
- Email accounts, mailboxes, filters — full Postfix/Dovecot setup
- DNS zone recreation and cutover planning
- SSL via Let’s Encrypt for all domains
- DKIM, SPF, DMARC for all mail domains
- Rspamd spam filtering configured and tuned
- Fail2ban intrusion prevention
- Automated backup configuration
- 30 days post-migration support via WhatsApp/email
- Complete written documentation of your new server
What is NOT included:
- The cost of your new server (you pay your VPS/dedicated provider directly)
- DNS cutover is actioned by you at your registrar — I provide step-by-step written instructions and remain available throughout the process until propagation is confirmed.
- Custom application development or WordPress plugin issues pre-existing before migration
Fixed price: from $1,200 for up to 10 domains. Larger projects quoted individually after free consultation — scope is always agreed in writing before any payment is requested.
Typical timeline: 5–10 business days from signed scope to completed cutover. Timeline varies with number of domains and complexity of mail setup.
