Simple Switch: How to Move from Hostfactory to CuriaWeb
Hostfactory is a veteran of Swiss hosting. However, if you are looking for modern features, intuitive cPanel management, and faster server response times, switching to CuriaWeb is the next logical step. We'll show you how to take control of your DNS.
Option A: Adjusting Nameservers in the Hostfactory Control Panel
If you wish to continue receiving your domain invoice from Hostfactory, simply change the DNS delegation:
- Log in to the Hostfactory Control Center.
- Navigate to the Domain Management section.
- Select the domain and click on "Manage Nameservers".
- Enter our Swiss nameservers:
- ns1.curiaweb.ch
- ns2.curiaweb.ch
- Save the changes. Note that it can take up to 24 hours for the changes to take effect worldwide (DNS propagation).
The All-in-One Solution: Transfer to CuriaWeb
Instead of laboriously maintaining DNS entries by hand, a transfer to CuriaWeb offers maximum convenience. By centralizing domain and hosting in our system, security mechanisms such as SSL (AutoSSL) and email filters (SpamExperts) become significantly easier to manage.
How the Move from Hostfactory Works:
To move your domain, you need the Transfer Code (Auth-Info). You can request this in the Hostfactory Control Center directly under the domain details. Once you have the code, enter it during your order on our website. We will take care of the rest of the process and ensure that your website remains online during the move.
What about existing DNS entries?
If you have special DNS entries (e.g., for Office 365 or external services) stored at Hostfactory, we will be happy to copy them into our system as part of a transfer. This ensures that all your services continue to run smoothly after the switch.
