# How to Unpublish a Site through the Advanced Editor?

Unpublishing your site will make it no longer visible on the internet. While the site will no longer be publicly visible, you will still be able to make edits to your site and your site subscription payment will continue unless you select **Do Not Renew** for your site subscription.

To unpublish a site, do the following steps.

1. From the Advance Editor, click the **"SEO & SETTINGS"** icon.
