Will closing my store hide it or hurt my SEO?

No. Your store stays fully online. We don't use a password page or a noindex tag, so search engines and shoppers can still see every page.

What changes during a closure

• A banner or popup tells shoppers you're away.
• Product and cart notices show the dispatch or reopen date.
• In block mode, checkout is stopped. Browsing still works.

What doesn't change

• Your pages, URLs and products stay live and crawlable.
• No password page.
• No noindex tags.
• Your store isn't taken offline.
