1. Start with the site you have, not a hosting label
A move makes sense only when you understand the current environment. Review the present host, server arrangement, content management system, domain registrar, DNS records, SSL certificate, email records, backups, administrator accounts and any outside services that depend on the site. A shared host may be adequate for one website and unsuitable for another; the relevant question is how your site behaves under its actual content, traffic and maintenance requirements. Bosseo states that its sites run on dedicated servers rather than shared hosting and that it handles migration from an existing host, including files, database and DNS. Newark’s population estimate identifies the municipality, while New Castle County identifies the county relationship. Neither fact tells you how much infrastructure your firm needs, so make the decision from your site inventory and observed behavior.
Recommended approach
Ask Bosseo to review your current hosting arrangement and identify dependencies before approving a move. Request a written description of what would be transferred, what would remain with your registrar or email provider, and which items your firm must approve.
