VPS Question

[cebu]

Currently i have 2 forum site with hatchling plan on each site. now im planning to add another site but will get the VPS level 4 or 5. now my question are:

1. can i transfer both site that you currently host from shared hosting to VPS that i will be purchasing soon?

2. is it transferred for free?

3. what happens to the remaining months that i have in shared hosting for both sites?

4. if the 2 current forum sites can be trasnferred to VPS, will it have its own CPanel for each sites?

5. for the 3 sites in total would a level 4 VPS account be enough?

These questions can really only be answered by HG themselves, so I suggest you submit a ticket with your questions. Then your questions and HG's answers are documented.

Once you cancel them we can credit back any remaining months of unused hosting.

4. if the 2 current forum sites can be trasnferred to VPS, will it have its own CPanel for each sites?

They are transferred for free as is so if they currently have they own cpanel they will on the VPS. You can get a quote from the Transfer Department if otherwise.

5. for the 3 sites in total would a level 4 VPS account be enough?

You may want to submit a support ticket to have the admins check on that.

If you get a VPS with WHM/cPanel you can do all of that yourself, but since HG does it for free let them do it. Then you have someone else to blame if something goes wrong.
