Access Your Trial Website: Setting Up Secure Visitor Permissions
Visitor access to a trial website is restricted to site owners and contributors by default. Here's how to manage access and share your trial site:
Accessing Your Website
- Open your browser and navigate to your trial website URL
- Click "Sign In" in the top right corner
- Enter your login credentials

Highlighted Login Button
Sharing Your Trial Website
To share your site with others while maintaining security:
- Add a site-wide password for controlled access
- Share your integrated domain (without "/config") with intended visitors
- Provide the password to authorized visitors
Important Notes:
- Trial websites are not indexed by search engines
- Visitors need both the direct URL and password to access the site
- Password protection maintains privacy while allowing specific visitors to view content
- Site owners can use password access to test the site across different devices
- To make your site public, upgrade to a paid plan
Password protection offers a secure way to share your trial website with friends, family, or clients without granting them editorial access. This method enables feedback and review while maintaining control over your site's development.
Remember to remove "/config" from the URL when sharing your integrated domain with visitors to ensure they reach the correct login page.
