Important News (SiteOpia Customers): SiteOpia decided to sell hosting business to Pickaweb with effect from 29th May 2020

Due to this business transition, Pickaweb is migrating DNS records from SiteOpia to their DNS hosting platform (Pickaweb), and so you may experience the outage while DNS propagation is going on.

There are many SiteOpia customers reported that, their DNS and other services hosted on SiteOpia has been effected due to this.

What should you do?

Interactively work with the Pickaweb Support guys and make sure all the records in your DNS control panel are correctly updated (verify all the records one by one).

So what changes (as per communication from SiteOpia to its customers)? 

There’s a little administration that will change - in particular your billing arrangements with SiteOpia. From the 29th May, you will be billed directly by Pickaweb. They will notify you in advance of any billing & you will be able to login to their billing area to make payment & download your invoices.

Pickaweb will also migrate your hosting and email from our servers to theirs. They will notify you in advance & make all of the necessary changes to your domain's Nameservers to minimize any interruption to your service.

Good Luck Friends! Hope to get back to the normal business soon.
