WordPress launch guide

How to prepare a managed WordPress launch with content, domain, SSL, and support review.

What this means

What this means

Managed WordPress is best when you want publishing, pages, posts, themes, and plugins without server administration. CM Cloud installs and configures WordPress for you — set up from your portal in minutes, with free migration if you're moving an existing site.

Before you start

Before you start

Bring your domain, preferred site name, admin contact, theme/plugin expectations, backup/migration notes, and launch window. If a current WordPress site exists, avoid changing plugins or DNS during review.

Step-by-step guidance

  1. Choose whether this is a new WordPress site or a migration.
  2. Prepare admin contact, content sections, logo, and any plugin/theme requirements.
  3. Review domain and SSL readiness before activation.
  4. Share migration access details only through approved support channels.
  5. Confirm support-reviewed launch timing before production cutover.
