Who Owns the Domain and Website?

Domain ownership and hosting responsibilities should be explicit in the accepted order and launch handoff. Belgravia's launch tooling keeps the production domain site-specific and does not treat a shared staging URL as the customer's final public property.

The short version

What this means in plain English

Domain ownership and hosting responsibilities should be explicit in the accepted order and launch handoff. Belgravia's launch tooling keeps the production domain site-specific and does not treat a shared staging URL as the customer's final public property.

Why this matters

Why should a business owner care?

Buying should feel simple even when the work behind the scenes is sophisticated. You should know what happens next, who owns what, and where to get help.

Simple example

Picture it this way.

After launch, you should not be left with a URL and no plan. The handoff should explain access, support, monitoring, changes, and follow-up.

What to focus on

The accepted order and service terms control the customer's actual commercial scope. Delivery should move through the same Client Account, Website Launch, QA, approval, domain, measurement, and Command Center owners every time.

What Belgravia does about it

Belgravia is building one repeatable path from accepted order to Client Account, Website Launch, QA, approval, domain, measurement, Command Center access, and ongoing support. The accepted order remains the commercial source of truth.
