The A2 Hosting staging environment provides you with the easiest way to do just that. Our staging tool makes it easy for you to create an environment specifically designed to test your changes before you make them live to your audience. There's no more worrying about whether a change will break your site and having to scramble to revert those changes. Staging helps you know exactly how an update will impact your site before you do it for complete peace of mind.
Creating a staging environment is as easy as just adding a new subdomain or domain to your site. Use our staging tool to make a copy of your existing live website to your new subdomain or domain. This staging environment is where you can do all of your testing whether you want to check a plugin or theme to see how it will impact your site. Once your testing has been completed in your staging environment and you want to take all of your edits live, you can easily do just that within your control panel.
