how this works

Most launch-day disasters — lost rankings, broken forms, slow pages, blocked indexing — are preventable with a disciplined pre-launch pass. This checklist groups the essentials the way our team runs them: content and legal, technical SEO and redirects, Core Web Vitals, WCAG accessibility, analytics and conversion tracking, security and backups, and a final cross-browser/device sweep. Don’t skip the redirect map and the noindex check — they cause the most post-launch pain.

What should be on a website launch checklist?
