/ Documentation / WPAI Cloud / What is WPAI Cloud? What is WPAI Cloud? When you build your website using WPAI, it starts as a Staging Site. A staging site is temporary. It’s on a temporary domain perfect for exploring designs, customizing content, and experimenting without worrying about domains or hosting. But once you’re ready to share your website with the world, you’ll need to move from staging → live hosting. That’s where WPAI Cloud comes in. Why WPAI Cloud Exists WPAI Cloud is our managed hosting platform, built specifically for websites created with WPAI. It gives you everything you need to: Connect your own custom domain (e.g., yourname.com ). Make your site publicly accessible on the internet. Ensure your site is secure, fast, and reliable. Without WPAI Cloud (or another hosting service), your staging site remains temporary and not suitable for long-term use. Key Benefits of WPAI Cloud Go Live Instantly : Move from a staging site to a live site in just a few clicks. Security Built-In : Every live site comes with a free SSL certificate and server-level protection—no extra setup needed. Optimized Performance : Sites on WPAI Cloud are hosted on optimized WordPress servers with built-in caching and speed improvements. Simple Dashboard : No technical control panels. Manage domains, sites, and usage from one clean interface. Team Collaboration : Invite teammates or clients to access and manage live sites. How WPAI Cloud Works Build your site on a WPAI Staging Site (temporary environment) with AI or with your custom design. Once you’re done finalising the design and ready to go live, click on the “Go Live” button. Choose a WPAI Cloud plan, or check if cloud sites are already included in your current plan. Once the purchase is completed, start connecting your custom domain (via Nameservers or CNAME). Once done, WPAI Cloud provisions hosting and SSL automatically after the DNS records are verified. Your site is now live and ready to share with the world. Frequently Asked Questions:- What is the difference between a Staging Site and a Cloud Site? A Staging Site is temporary and meant for designing, customizing, and experimenting. A Cloud Site is your live website, connected to your custom domain and accessible to the public. Do I need WPAI Cloud plan to make my site live? Yes. Without WPAI Cloud (or another hosting provider), your site will remain on a temporary domain and cannot be used as a long-term live website to manage live visitors. Do I need to purchase a separate SSL certificate? No. Every site hosted on WPAI Cloud comes with a free SSL certificate automatically. How do I connect my domain to WPAI Cloud? You can connect your domain by updating Nameservers or adding a CNAME record. Once DNS records are verified, hosting and SSL are provisioned automatically.
