1) When you purchase a domain, you own it
2) When you hire someone to build you a website, you own all content on it
In general, the owner of the domain is also the owner of the website. All YVOD clients own both their domain and their website.
Some web creation companies use software to “generate” a website. If this technology is not transferrable you will be locked into using them for hosting. What this means to you is that the images and text are owned by you, but how those images and text get made (served to the internet) may not be transferrable.
YVOD believes that migration to another host should be painless. We believe you should be able to take anywebsite we create and move it to another host with limited configuration issues. As such, we only build “Standards Compliant” websites.
Note: we have built out own proprietary e-commerce technology that can not be transferred. However, all the pages on your e-commerce sites are static and can be migrated without hassle.
