Use it when

The draft was checked and the owner wants it live.

What it does

Put the draft online at cncto.co/w/<name>: visitors see exactly this version until the next publish. The first publish starts the site's rent, $5 a month from the balance; later publishes cost $0.01. The last 20 versions are kept (website_rollback).

What comes back

The site with its address, live version and rent (started by the first publish), the version just published, and the address. Every reply also carries cost_usd and balance_usd.
