Private preview link
On the Make it live page, Create a private preview puts a copy of your site at a hard-to-guess address that you can share with a partner or friend before going live. Click Update preview to refresh it after changes.
You can also open the Builder preview in a new tab with the Preview button, but that link is meant for you while you work.
Taking a site offline
Make it live → Take offline shows a "temporarily unavailable" page instead of your site. Nothing is deleted, and the site stays on your bill at the same price until you delete it. To bring it back, click Make it live again. There's nothing to activate and no extra charge.
Archiving a site
Settings → Archive this website takes the site offline, backs it up, releases it from your bill and removes it from your dashboard. Your files and contacts are kept. Type the site's name to confirm.
