How much my GoDaddy migration is going to cost?

When considering migrating your website to GoDaddy, understanding the associated costs is crucial. The cost of migration can vary depending on several factors, including the type of hosting plan you're transferring to, the complexity of your website, and the services you choose to include in the migration process. Typically, GoDaddy offers a free migration service for basic website transfers, but for more complex sites, such as eCommerce platforms or custom-built websites, you might need to opt for a paid migration service. The cost of these services can range from $99 to $200 or more, depending on the level of support and expertise required. It's important to get a clear quote from GoDaddy or a third-party migration expert before proceeding to avoid any unexpected costs.

Factors Affecting GoDaddy Migration Costs

There are several factors that can influence the cost of migrating to GoDaddy. One of the most significant factors is the type of hosting you select, such as shared hosting, VPS, or dedicated servers. Each type of hosting has different pricing structures, and moving to a higher-tier plan will naturally cost more. Additionally, websites with a lot of content, custom databases, or specific technical requirements may require more time and resources to migrate, leading to higher costs.

Type of Hosting Plan

Different hosting plans—such as shared hosting, VPS, and dedicated servers—carry different costs. The choice of hosting plan significantly impacts the price of migration services.

Website Complexity

The complexity of your website, such as custom scripts, large databases, or special configurations, can increase the migration cost. More complex sites require more time and technical expertise to migrate properly.

GoDaddy’s Migration Services

GoDaddy offers several options when it comes to website migration, ranging from free tools to professional services. Their free migration tools are useful for users with simple websites, while the paid migration services provide more tailored support for complex migrations. It's also worth considering additional services, such as SEO optimization and performance tuning, which may be offered as part of a premium migration package.

Free Migration Tools

GoDaddy provides free migration tools for users with simple websites. These tools can help transfer your site without additional costs, but they may have limitations for more advanced websites.

Professional Migration Assistance

For websites with more complex needs, GoDaddy offers paid professional migration services. These services provide expert help and ensure that the migration is completed smoothly, without downtime or errors.

Can I Do My Own GoDaddy Migration?

While GoDaddy provides migration tools, you may prefer to handle the migration yourself to save on costs. If you're technically proficient, you can use GoDaddy's self-guided process to move your site. However, this requires a good understanding of web hosting, databases, and DNS settings. If you're unsure or want to avoid any potential downtime or errors, hiring a professional may be a safer bet.

Self-Guided Migration Process

GoDaddy offers a self-guided migration process that allows users with technical skills to handle the transfer independently, saving on costs but requiring a thorough understanding of web hosting.

Risks of DIY Migration

If you're not well-versed in the technical aspects of website migration, DIY transfers can lead to downtime, data loss, or misconfigurations, making it a risky choice for many website owners.

Additional Costs to Consider After Migration

After completing your migration to GoDaddy, there may be other associated costs to consider. This could include domain registration renewals, security features like SSL certificates, and the cost of additional website optimization tools. Additionally, if your website experiences traffic spikes or requires enhanced performance, you might need to upgrade your hosting plan for better scalability.

Domain Registration and Renewals

After migration, you will need to pay for domain registration and annual renewals. This is a recurring cost that is separate from the migration itself, and it’s essential to factor it into your overall budget.

Upgrading Your Hosting Plan

Once your site is live on GoDaddy, you might find that your current hosting plan is not sufficient to handle the traffic or performance needs. Upgrading your hosting plan can be an additional cost to consider post-migration.

    Online store owner

    I am 100% satisfied with Cart2Cart. I compared over ten different services and chose Cart2Cart because it offers professional help combined with competitive pricing. These days, as many companies grow, customer service becomes worse. I had a minor issue with the migration and much to my surprise it was dealt with in less than 3 hours of sending an email. That is just about unheard of in this day and age! Cart2Cart exceeded my expectations!

  • Carolina Fonseca
    Online store owner

    Everything is very fast and easy for someone like me who doesn't understand too much about computers... lol... I was even thinking to hire a developer to do the work but it was no necessary at all. The Cart2Cart support answered all my questions. No difficulties at all! I am really satisfied with the results.

  • Jean Edwards
    Online book store owner

    Cart2Cart offers superb service - you can just relax while they do all the migration work for you. If you have any queries or questions, then their Support Team is second-to-none: they are truly the best! Friendly, informative LIVE HELP on their site, makes Cart2Cart the only option for store migration for me!

  • Marty Arieli
    Sales Manager

    I know Cart2Cart from the earliest day you guys started when there was no cart migration and seemed like the stone ages. Cart2Cart set the highest standard in the eCommerce platform exchange industry as a Leader now and we haven't done single migration without using your services! Thank you for all your unsurpassed support!

  • Andre Markus
    Web developer, Store owner

    The Cart2Cart was under TOP3 and had an convincing website with a calculation tool and good references. It was an easy decision to choose your service to migrate our shop database. 🙂 An easy API-installation and step-by-step assistant during the migration progress - all that is very good. Also, I was surprised with your support, they helped me with the little thumbnail problem in PrestaShop's backend after migration. That was a very fast response that really helped!!!

  • Shirley Hodges
    Online store owner

    Oh my goodness, yes I recommend Cart2Cart!!! My developer/designer for my new stores has also added Cart2Cart to her "bag of tricks". She's got first-hand experience now with what a great resource Cart2Cart is for getting data transferred efficiently and accurately! Kudos to the entire Cart2Cart Team!!!

  • Jenis Shah
    Project Manager at EMR

    I have been using Cart2Cart since a long time, and I'm a repeat customer. I used it for data migration, and I have a very good experience! Excellent team, excellent support and I'll be using it again and again! Thank you so much for providing such a great product!

  • Gijs van Woerdekom
    Web developer

    I found Cart2Cart after searching the internet. Everything was looking good, so I talked to my customer who had to agree with the price. Handling the migration on my own would be too difficult for me - there was hundreds of products and a different database structure on the old shop. Also lots of categories.So why starting a difficult migration myself instead of using this fixed price solution?

  • Justin Williams
    Web developer

    I used Cart2Cart for my agency as I was performing a mass migration from OpenCart to WooCommerce for a client. It wasn’t cost effective for us to write scripts to perform the migration so we chose Cart2Cart and it worked out very well.

  • Karen Newell
    Online store owner

    My contact at Cart2Cart was very responsive, patient and helpful and I could tell she had a dedicated team working behind the scenes. Thanks to Cart2Cart, I am especially thrilled to have 3 years of customer and order data from my old system show up within Shopify, just like current orders. They completed the conversion exactly on time for my store launch.

  • Christopher Simmons
    Online store owner, Entrepreneur

    After trying to do a traditional brute force export/import thing using Excel/CSV, I googled and found Cart2Cart. I tried the quick demo, and went “Wow, that worked!” so decided to order the full service. Cart2Cart gave us a migrated user dbase, and order history, and it all works perfectly. Cannot recommend it more highly. Super happy with the final result.

  • Karen Rzepecki
    Online store owner

    Our developer has used Cart2Cart before. The Bigcommerce to Magento data transfer was very easy. We hope to go live soon and can't wait to use the new system!
