Upgrading from shared hosting to VPS is the right move when your site outgrows shared resources. But the migration itself — moving files, databases, email, and updating DNS — stops many Indian businesses from making the move. Bagful handles the complete migration for free as part of every VPS signup.
A shared-to-VPS migration has several parts: file transfer, database migration, email account setup, DNS update, and SSL certificate installation. Each step needs to happen in the right order to avoid downtime.
1. We set up your new VPS and install the same software stack as your current host (cPanel/WHM, PHP version, MySQL). 2. We transfer all files and databases to the new server. 3. We set up all email accounts. 4. We test everything on the new server before touching DNS. 5. We update DNS — your site is live on the new VPS with zero downtime. 6. We monitor for 24 hours to catch any edge cases.
After migration, Bagful continues to manage the VPS — OS updates, security patches, monitoring, and incident response. You don't need a sysadmin. You get all the benefits of VPS with managed service.
