How to Build a Website Q&A: How to Build a Website While Undergoing ICP Filing

In yesterday's article, I sharedDo I Need to File for Record When Building My Own Websitethe answer. Then, some friends might ask,How to Build a Website While It's Being Filed for Record? Although a website cannot be accessed during the filing period, it doesn't mean you can't build a website while it's being filed. If it's being filed, we have two ways to build a website.

Building a Website Using a Local Environment

What does building a website using a local environment mean? It means setting up a website environment on your local computer or server, building the website on it, and then migrating the website data to the server that has completed the filing after the website is built. For example, you can use a virtual machine on your computer to install a Linux server, theninstall LNMPorBaota Panel. During the installation, keep all options and passwords the same as the information for the filing server, then modify the local hosts file to resolve your filed domain's IP to the virtual machine's IP. This way, you can access the website data on the virtual machine through your filed domain. After the filing is approved, you can directly upload all the data to the filed server, delete the locally resolved hosts file, and keep everything else unchanged.

Building a Website Using a Server That Doesn't Require Filing for Record

You can also purchase a temporary server for one month during the website filing period, such asVultr'spay-as-you-go VPS. Use a subdomain to build the website on it, and then migrate the data to the filed server after the website filing is complete.

Better Suggestions

Of course, if you are a computer novice and don't understand the above, Naibabiji suggests you not rush to build a website during the filing period. You can use this time to carefully plan your website's content and structure. After the website filing is approved, you can directly publish articles, which is better. You can use Word to write some articles locally in advance. Once the website filing is approved and the website is built, you can publish several pre-written articles to the website daily. This is also friendly to search engines and beneficial for SEO.
