After weeks of work, your new website is ready – or so you think. Before you hit “go live,” check these five essentials.

1. Links: Click every button and link. Nothing should lead to a blank page.
2. Contact Form: Test it. Twice. Make sure you receive the email.
3. Spelling: Small errors make big impressions. Proofread carefully.
4. Speed: Slow sites lose visitors. Compress large images.
5. Mobile View: Test it on your phone. Can you read everything easily?

Once everything checks out, then you can celebrate. Launch days should feel exciting, not terrifying.
