How to create a simple placeholder page in less than ten minutes

Have you ever started a project and wanted to put up a placeholder page while you work behind the scenes? Or are you working on your site and want to put it into maintenance mode but keep your email opt-in available to your visitors?

Today’s tutorial will show you exactly how to do it – in less than ten minutes!

Whenever I create a new WordPress site, I like to setup a placeholder, or maintenance page, on the main domain name – that way, if someone goes to the site, there’s already some sort of call to action (like an email opt-in) or other message to notify the user that the site is coming soon.

Here’s what you’ll need to get started

• A WordPress site
• The Coming Soon Plugin from Seedprod
