Website Launch Checklist

  • BUILD / 02
  • Free Website Launch Resource

Check your website before real visitors do.

A website can look finished and still contain broken links, incorrect contact paths, mobile layout problems, missing SEO basics, deployment issues or other details that only become obvious after real visitors arrive.

Website Launch Checklist gives business owners a structured 50 point review before launch, after a redesign or after major website changes.

It is designed to be useful whether the website was built with AI, a developer, an agency, a website builder or by the owner.

Free Resource · €0+

Available free, with an optional contribution through Gumroad.

When This Checklist May Be Useful

It may be useful:

  • before launching a new business website
  • after a redesign
  • after major website changes
  • before sending meaningful traffic to a website
  • after moving domains, hosting or deployment configuration
  • whenever the owner wants a structured Production review

What the 50 Checks Cover

The checklist covers:

  • business information and trust
  • content and conversion
  • navigation and contact actions
  • desktop and mobile presentation
  • links, forms and images
  • performance basics, HTTPS and Production basics
  • technical SEO, sitemap and robots behavior
  • social previews and structured data where applicable
  • domain, hosting and repository ownership
  • analytics and consent when used
  • final live Production verification

How to Use the Checklist

Work through the checks and mark only items that were actually verified.

Unknown should not automatically be treated as complete.

The checklist is written so that non-developers can use it.

Red, Amber and Green

Red

A core visitor action or Production requirement is broken or incorrect.

Fix before launch.

Amber

The core website works but non-critical items remain.

Launch only with a clear follow-up plan.

Green

Core visitor paths, important information and Production behavior have been checked.

This is a simple launch-readiness logic, not a certification or guarantee.

The 10 Minute Live Smoke Test

The checklist ends with a short Production review such as:

  • open the homepage in a private browser
  • use navigation
  • open a key product or service page
  • test the primary CTA
  • test contact on mobile
  • verify the 404 page
  • check mobile and desktop presentation
  • confirm the intended release is actually live

Who This Resource May Be Relevant For

This resource may be relevant for:

  • business owners
  • self-employed professionals
  • consultants and service providers
  • local businesses and creators
  • website owners launching their first business website
  • people reviewing an AI-assisted website
  • people checking work delivered by a builder, developer or agency

What This Checklist Does Not Guarantee

Completing the checklist does not guarantee business results, rankings, security, legal compliance, error-free operation or future compatibility.

It is a structured practical review, not a security audit, professional compliance review or certification.

Domains, hosting, software and other third-party services remain separate.

Position Within DarkBrain Build System

Website Launch Checklist is BUILD / 02.

BUILD / 02 is the second public product identifier within DarkBrain Build System.

The number does not represent a required level.

BUILD / 02 does not require BUILD / 01. BUILD / 01 does not require BUILD / 02.

Each BUILD product addresses a defined practical build problem and may be used independently.

BUILD / 02 is free. BUILD / 01 is the paid website-building system.

Already checking a website you built?

The checklist helps verify what exists.

If you instead need a complete guided process for planning, building, launching and later maintaining a business website with AI, BUILD / 01 is the broader website-building system.

Is this only for websites built with AI?

No. It can be used for websites built with AI, developers, agencies, website builders or by the owner.

Does completing the checklist guarantee my website has no problems?

No. It is a structured practical review, not a guarantee, certification, security audit or professional compliance review.

A website can be polished and still miss something that matters to a real visitor.

Use a structured review to see what is ready, what needs attention and what still needs to be verified live.
