A short pre-launch review can catch issues that are easy to miss during development. Check the site on both desktop and mobile before sharing it with visitors.
Review the essentials
- Open key pages and follow internal links.
- Submit each form and confirm the expected response.
- Check the layout on a phone-sized screen.
- Confirm that HTTPS and the SSL certificate work.
- Create a backup and verify how to restore it.
After launch
Watch for broken links and errors, keep the CMS and extensions updated, and make sure backups continue to run.
