Pre-launch preparation
Before launching, confirm every page is built, content is proofread, forms work, and images are optimized. A rushed launch leads to embarrassing fixes.
Give yourself at least a few days for final testing before sharing the website publicly.
- All pages built and proofread
- Forms tested on multiple devices
- Images optimized for web
- Internal links verified
- Contact information consistent
Technical checks
Confirm SSL is active, page speed is acceptable, mobile experience is clean, and analytics is tracking. These technical basics support user experience and search visibility.
SEO setup
Before launch, confirm page titles, meta descriptions, heading structure, sitemap, and robots.txt are in place. Submit your sitemap to search engines after launch.
SEO setup before launch ensures search engines can discover and index your pages from day one.
Launch day
On launch day, do a final walkthrough. Check every page on mobile and desktop. Test every form. Verify every link. Then share your website with the world.
Keep your launch checklist handy for a second review a few days after launch. Some issues only appear after real visitors start using the site.
