A short checklist that catches the things people usually miss.
Content
- No demo text left: no "Lorem ipsum", no sample addresses, phone numbers or email addresses
- Your real contact details in the footer, the contact page and the topbar
- Every image is yours (or properly licensed), and none are placeholders
- Legal pages present if you sell: privacy policy, terms, refund/returns
Function
- Send yourself a message through every form
- Subscribe to your own newsletter and confirm the email arrives
- If you sell: place a test order end to end, including payment and the confirmation email
- Click every menu item and footer link
- Open the site on a phone
Search and sharing
- Homepage title says what you do, not just your name
- Meta description on your main pages
- Social share image set (General Settings → SEO Settings)
- Sitemap submitted in Google Search Console
- Indexing enabled on your plan, and the site not marked hidden
