Launch checklist after a move

First hour

1. Open your domain in a private window. You should see the new site.
2. Check that the address starts with https and shows no warning.
3. Open every page in the menu.
4. Open the site on your phone.
5. Submit a contact form and confirm it reaches Customers.
6. Send a test email to your domain address.

First day

1. Open Website > Domain and confirm the domain shows active and as your main address.
2. Open your old page addresses and check each one lands on the right page. See Redirect old URLs.
3. Update your Google Business Profile, social profiles and email signature with the new links.
4. Check that your phone number, address and hours are right.
5. Look at your site on a second network or device. Old answers can stay cached for a while.

First week

1. Check your inbox and customers daily.
2. Look for pages people reach that you forgot to move.
3. Keep the old site running until the week ends.
4. Cancel the old plan once the new one has run clean. Keep your domain registration.
