Trial sites are private by default, meaning only site owners and contributors can access them. To allow others to view your trial site without editing permissions, follow these steps:
- Add a site password to enable visitor access
- Share your predefined domain name (without /config) with visitors
- Give them the password you created
Key points about trial site access:
- Trial sites don't appear in search results
- Visitors need both the direct URL and password
- Site owners can use the password to test the site as a regular visitor
- To make your site public, upgrade to a paid plan
This password protection method lets you safely share your work-in-progress with friends and family while maintaining control over site editing.
When you're ready for your site to be publicly accessible, you'll need to switch to a paid plan and remove the password protection if desired.
