Launching a brand new website is always stressful: you are worried if everything will be in order, does everything work as it should be, would audience like your design and content, will they share it with friends online.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To make your life a bit easier and launching less stressful, we made this short checklist of most important steps that need to be taken before launching:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Double-check if every URL is working, and if external URLs are \u201ctarget _blank\u201d – you don\u2019t want your visitors to accidentally wander off site.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    Double-check if Contact and Mailing list forms are working correctly.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    Is Google Analytics code working properly? Nothing worse than launching a website and not knowing how many visitors you\u2019ve had on that special day.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  4. \n

    Did you set up all social network handles (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, SlideShare, YouTube, etc.) you want? Don\u2019t leave it for later – someone can register it instead and misuse it.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  5. \n

    Make an email list of friends and business contact for launching, and prepare launching newsletter text and design. What would be the landing page, homepage or perhaps a blog post?<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  6. \n

    Make an email list of important bloggers and media interested in your industry, and send them a wonderful press release (hire someone if you don\u2019t have perfect writing skills!).<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Check items from this list several times before you officially pronounce your web location open.
