Why we build a hidden preview before anything goes live

Before a site goes live, you should see the real thing, not a description of it. We build every site as a hidden preview first.

What a preview is

A preview is the full site on a private address. We tell search engines to ignore it, so it is not found by accident, and we send you the link. You open it on your phone, click everything, and read the words as your customers will.

Why it matters

• You catch what we cannot. Only you know that the second room is called "Peace" and not "Hope".
• Nothing is at risk. Your existing site and email carry on untouched while we work.
• Changes are cheap. Moving a heading in a preview costs minutes. Moving it after launch costs trust.

What we ask you to check

Every phone number and email address. Every price and opening time. Anything with a name in it. The legal pages. We include a notes page in each preview that lists what we still need from you.

Then we launch

Launch day is small because the work is already done: point the domain, switch on the certificate, keep email intact, register the site with Google. A quiet launch means a good preview.
