Why this matters
Prevent avoidable launch failures with an owner-based checklist and evidence for every critical path.
Test navigation, forms, validation, emails, analytics, consent, metadata, canonicals, redirects, sitemap, robots, keyboard access and major mobile sizes.
Action plan
Test navigation, forms, validation, emails, analytics, consent, metadata, canonicals, redirects, sitemap, robots, keyboard access and major mobile sizes.
- Do all forms reach the right owner? Write the answer in the brief and connect it to this outcome: Test navigation, forms, validation, emails, analytics, consent, metadata, canonicals, redirects, sitemap, robots, keyboard access and major mobile sizes.
- Are legacy URLs redirected? Check the answer against this practical situation: A form that displays a success message but never sends the lead is a launch blocker. Verify both the user experience and the destination system.
- Can key tasks be completed by keyboard? Name the owner, the evidence they must keep and the date when the decision will be reviewed.
| Step | Decision question | Evidence to keep |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Do all forms reach the right owner? | Test navigation, forms, validation, emails, analytics, consent, metadata, canonicals, redirects, sitemap, robots, keyboard access and major mobile sizes. |
| 2 | Are legacy URLs redirected? | A form that displays a success message but never sends the lead is a launch blocker. Verify both the user experience and the destination system. |
| 3 | Can key tasks be completed by keyboard? | Named owner, source record and review date |
Worked example
A form that displays a success message but never sends the lead is a launch blocker. Verify both the user experience and the destination system.

The short version
- Make the offer easy to understand on a phone.
- Give the visitor one obvious next step.
- Test the form, speed and tracking before sending traffic.
Meet Tara. Tara runs a small software company in Surat. Customers keep asking questions that the website should answer. On a phone, the contact button is hard to find. Tara uses this guide to fix one clear path first, instead of rebuilding everything in a panic.
This is a made-up example to explain the idea. It is not a client result.
