1. I have purchased a domain name. How do I resolve it and publish my site?
If your product is hosted on a node in Hangzhou, you must complete an Internet Content Provider (ICP) filing. After the filing is approved, resolve your domain name. After the domain name is resolved, click Publish to publish your site.
If your product is hosted on a node in China (Hong Kong), you can resolve your domain name directly. After the domain name is resolved, click Publish to publish your site.
2. What do I do if my site shows as unpublished when I access the domain name?
Log in to the Wanxiaozi AI Website Builder console. In the upper-right corner, click Publish. After the site is published successfully, access the domain name again to view your site.
If the site fails to publish, verify that the domain name was resolved successfully.
3. After my site is resolved and published, can it be found by searching for my company name?
Search engine ranking depends on settings such as page Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Robots.txt, sitemaps, Baidu Analytics, and site verification. It typically takes four to eight weeks for Baidu to index your site.
4. Why can't I find my site on Baidu by searching for my company name after publishing?
Confirm that you have configured the Search Engine Optimization (SEO) settings. If the settings are complete, Baidu typically indexes your site within four to eight weeks. If not, configure the settings for page SEO, Robots.txt, sitemaps, Baidu Analytics, and site verification.
5. How long does it take for my site to go live after publishing?
Publishing your site takes effect immediately. If you still see the previous content when you access your domain name, clear your browser cache and try again.
6. After publishing, why does my domain name show "Sorry! The site you are visiting does not exist."?
Domain name resolution takes time to propagate. Verify that your domain name has been resolved successfully.
7. Do I need to publish each page individually?
No, you do not. When you click Publish, all pages are published at the same time.
8. If I publish the desktop site, do I also need to publish the mobile site separately?
The desktop and mobile versions are published simultaneously when you click Publish. No separate publishing is required.
9. Do I need to publish the site every time I update its content?
Yes, you do. After you update the site content, click Publish again. Then, clear your browser cache and access your domain name to view the latest changes.
10. The page content appears as garbled text after publishing.
If your site displays garbled text or disordered content when you access the domain name, clear your browser cache and access the domain name again. The site should then display correctly.
11. Can I still modify the site content after it is published?
Yes, you can. After you modify the site content, click Publish in the upper-right corner of the Cloud Website Builder console to apply your changes.
12. How can I check if my site has been indexed by search engines?
In a search engine's search box, enter site:your-top-level-domain to see how many of your pages have been indexed.
Note: The colon after `site` must be a half-width character (`:`).
13. Does the site verification feature only support Baidu?
You can use multiple verification methods. To add code for multiple search engines, enter the code for each on a separate line.
