My favourite ways are:

- .htaccess (use Google to find the right syntax to deny access to all 
but allow access for your own IP address) if your hoster allows you to 
create/edit sucha file

- TypoScript condition : somewhere in the TypoScript setup there is a 
PAGE object. If you put that inside a condition for your own IP address 
others will just see a blank page:

[IP = 123.231.213.132]
page = PAGE
...
[global]
