    I purchased a company and their website url but they cannot give me the website content.

    1. Can someone mirror or copy the website for me?
    2. What would you charge?

    PM me for details, anyone interested, I will PM the url for them to look at.

    it all depends on how they have made the site.

    If it's a static website you can save it any number of ways, but should it be stored in a database (most medium/large websites will be) you're going to beed a database backup, which you can't get on your own

    If YOU OWN the company, WHY can't YOU access YOUR OWN CONTENT?

    All the files should be in the file manager. So you should probably have a access to it.

    @mmerlinn
    He/She says, they gave the link a.k.a Domain name and NOT Hosting!

    Thanks for the suggestions.

    I dont have access to the cpanel or file manager. I can change the dns and pull the url, but I have not yet until I get the content.

    Got you all taken care of my friend.

    Copied the entire site, images and all.
    Including all pdf files, etc.

    Sent you an email as to where I put the site up as a demo for you to check out.

    Everything works, so we just need to get together as to when you want it transferred to your server.
