Website Migration Case Studies

Website Migration Case Studies

This blog assumes that you have read and understood: https://fairshare.tech/2020/07/25/domain-owner-is-the-king-dont-let-your-developer-hold-your-domain-for-ransom/

This will ensure that you know and understand connection between these terms:

  • Domain Registrar
  • DNS Servers
  • Email hosting
  • Website hosting

This blog is to give you general guidance. This is no way a complete document as every environment is different. Having said that, you should surely not touch anything in your environment without going through this document.

Case 1: Migrating away from Adobe Business Catalyst (ABC)

  • Domain Registered at Netregistry / GoDaddy
  • Existing DNS Servers: ABC 
  • Existing Website Hosting: ABC
  • Existing Email Hosting: ABC

This guideline could be used when you are planning to migrate away from any other company. ABC is just an example. 

1. Backup from ABC:

  • DNS Settings (A-records, MX-records etc)
  • List of Email accounts and backup of actual emails
  • Contents (text, images) etc from existing website (there are backup and migration tools for sites made using CMS like WordPress)
  • Any other dynamic / static contents like CRM, company user manuals on the hosting
  • Look at the subdomains to ensure nothing is missed out

2. Ensure your new website is running in the staging area on a new host.

3. Email migration is the toughest in my opinion. Ask following questions to your new email provider:

  • Do you have any automated way to migrate from ABC to the new servers? There could be since everyone in the market knows ABC is going away and they might want to grab that market share.
  • Can my old email backups be uploaded to the new server? If yes, how? Is there any special way to take this backup? 
  • How to point MX records to the new service? How much time will it need to propagate?
  • How will I create new email accounts?
  • What server and port numbers etc should my staff use to connect Outlook to your new servers?
  • I had other domains used as aliases for emails as well. For example, both ani@fairshare.tech and ani@fairit.in were pointing to the same Inbox. So how can we achieve this with your email service?
Why should I use your resume portal?

Why should I use your resume portal?

Read this blog to learn more about Why should I use your resume portal?

I can manage resumes by using Google Form (for Job Description as well as capturing candidate info including resume doc or pdf) then storing those in Google Drive. Google Drive has search. We can store resumes in subfolder. One subfolder for each category/ job fitment. All of the above is free. Why should I use your resume portal? Google drive will let you store the resumes you receive, but the important part is letting potential candidates know about new job openings and getting in applications. With our portal, you can easily share and re-share job descriptions, reaching more people who can apply with just the click of a button. Their resume is automatically attached to their application and you don’t have to go about manually looking for each applicant’s resume in your Google drive folders. Our portal will show you all the details you need to know when you view an application. You can also centrally change your job descriptions as your requirement changes and not have to worry about inconsistent Google Forms being circulated. There are only so many resumes and applications you can manage manually on Google Drive. We provide a bulk e-mailing service within our portal so you can scale up to many more candidates and jobs, and still maintain smooth communication with them.

Business Group

Business Group

There are many business groups around. They create a WhatsApp group of all members. But their members don’t really know each other. There is no consolidated information about the group. Admin should organize member information in one place otherwise there will be too many messages on whatsapp about each other’s business but no is going to remember all that.

We have done this consolidation for another business group as below:

Members need to create a zip visiting card for free using below

Then group admin can add these members to group.

All members information in one place!

How to validate certificates

How to validate certificates

Read this blog to learn how to validate certificates:

https://validat.in addresses a very unique requirement for educational institutes. Please read to know how it saves time and gives confidence to companies about your institute.

Fair Share conducts many professional courses and issues Internship, SQL, Python and Japanese proficiency certificates to students. Students submit these certificates to companies as a proof. The HR department then calls us to verify authenticity of the certificate. This is time consuming for Fair Share. 

We changed the certificate format so that it includes a random unique ID and link to https://validat.in. We upload this certificate to https://validat.in before sending it to student.

 

When companies receive this certificate they do not need to call us.  They can copy paste the unique id from certificate at https://validat.in and  verify themselves!  

https://validat.in is thus a unique solution on How to validate certificates
