You might want to check with what the hosting package provides. Sometimes
there are ways to "suspend" hosting accounts without deleting the site.
Another option would be to rename the home page (index.html Default.htm or
whatever it is) to something else. You could then create another home page
that wouldn't allow for any navigation throughout the site (saying site
currently unavailable or something like that)
