Publishing and domains

Live when you say so, and easy to undo

Editing never changes the live site. Each website opens on its Overview: whether it is live, what to do next, its pages, its latest messages and recent changes. When you are happy, press Publish: the dialog lists everything that is waiting, and the whole site goes live together, or only the parts you tick. Every publish is kept, so going back to last week’s version is easy.

What you get

An Overview page for each website, one-click publishing of everything or only what is ready, products published on their own, every version kept, Advanced SEO on Pro, and the included cubesites.site address or your own domain.

  • An Overview for every website

    Status, a next-steps checklist, a map of the pages, the latest messages and recent changes, all on the page a website opens on.

  • One-click publish

    Pages, theme, header and footer go live together, so visitors never see a half-finished change.

  • See what is waiting

    The Publish dialog lists every page added, changed or removed, any design change and the products waiting to go live. Publish everything, or tick only what is ready and leave the rest in the draft.

  • Products on their own

    Publish product and category changes by themselves, without putting a half-built page live. Prices, stock and offers are live as soon as they are saved.

  • Version history

    Every publish is kept. Bring back an earlier version into the editor, check it, and publish it again when you are ready.

  • An included address, or your own domain

    Every site comes with a your-company.cubesites.site address. With a licence, connect your own domain with two DNS records.

  • Ready for search engines

    Page titles, descriptions, social sharing images, a sitemap and clean addresses, all set up for you.

  • Advanced SEO on Pro

    Pro websites add redirects from old addresses, structured data about your business, and SEO checks that point out what to fix.

  • Analytics with consent

    Add Google Analytics with your measurement ID. It only loads after a visitor accepts cookies.

In practice

Moving to your own domain

An example with placeholder names. Team A, User A and Company A stand in for your own.

  1. 1User A adds www.your-company.co.uk in the site settings.
  2. 2CubeSites shows the two DNS records to add. User A adds them at their domain provider.
  3. 3Once the records are checked, User A presses Make main. The live site now answers on the new domain, and the cubesites.site address forwards to it.
