Not sure how to word this - building site before using domain name?

[Joey_Quest]

Hi everyone.

I’m moving a site to Dreamhost. I want to build the site while the existing site on another host stays live, then set the new sit on Dreamhost live once it’s finished and turn off the old one.

Is there a good way to do this?

Thanks!
