You're finally ready to flip the switch to make your website live to the public. The process for doing this depends on whether you have an existing website that you need to turn off, or whether your Squarespace site is your first/only website for your company. We'll cover both of these now.
Note
We're assuming you have already set up billing on your account. If you have not yet done so, and are still on a trial account, refer back to the Setting up your subscription plan and billing section in Chapter 2, Getting Started with Squarespace.
The first step to going live is the same, regardless of your situation: you need to remove the password protection that we set up in Chapter 2, Getting Started with Squarespace, to make your site visible on its Squarespace URL. To do this, go to Settings | Security and simply delete the password (shown by a series of dots), and click on Save.
