Hi, I am new to InMotion Hosting and currently developing a website using WordPress. How do I prevent the website from being live on the internet until I am ready for it to be seen?
Hello,
Thank you for submitting a question regarding developing a new WordPress site.
There are many different methods for developing a site unseen from the public. The most popular method is to put an "Under Construction" or "Maintenance" page with some information.
The easiest way to accomplish this with a WordPress site is to download and use a "maintenance mode" plugin.
I'll assume you already familiar with how WordPress plugins work. If not, we have a full guide regarding how to get started using WordPress plugins.
Best,
Christopher M.
