# Publishing

Publishing is the moment your reviewed draft becomes a live site.

This section covers:

- The basics of going live with a Studio site.
- [Using your own domain](custom-domains.md) instead of a Sitekick address.

## From approved draft to live site

A Studio site goes live when you publish it from your workspace. Until you
publish, drafts stay private — visitors cannot see them.

Before you publish, it is worth a final check:

- Business details are correct — services, contact information, links.
- Every page reads the way you want.
- Anything time-sensitive (prices, seasonal offers, event dates) is current.

You can continue to improve the site after it is live — publishing is a
checkpoint, not a finish line.

## After you publish

Once the site is live, Studio keeps an eye on it for you. Care sweeps review
the site over time and quality reports summarize what they found. See
[Site Care](../care/README.md) for how that works.

## Domains

Every Studio site gets a Sitekick address. When you are ready, you can use
your own domain instead — see [Using your own domain](custom-domains.md).
