GOING LIVE

Launching a website requires careful planning and preparation to ensure it's optimised for success.

Our PixelHaze pre-flight checklist outlines the steps before making your Squarespace website live, including fixing broken links, optimising load times, and reviewing content

Mobile First

These days it is common practice to begin by designing for mobile devices and then scaling up to larger desktop screens. Don't leave it until this stage.

1 Test for broken links and fix them before launching the website

2 Review all content on the website for errors and typos before going live

3 Check mobile and tablet views for all pages.

4 Check address and contact details, and ensure contact forms are going to be sent to the correct email address

5 Add a favicon (small icon in browser)

6 Set up 301 redirects (if applicable) to ensure that visitors are directed to the correct pages if upgrading from a previous website

7 Select an appropriate Squarespace hosting plan for your website's needs

8 Enable the cookie banner.

9 Apply the PixelHaze discount voucher to save on your hosting plan

10 Purchase or hook up your desired domain name to your Squarespace website

11 Double-check all website settings and content before switching your website to 'live' mode
