What This Tool Helps You Do
A launch review is more useful when it follows the same path your visitors will take. Check the pages, forms, links, mobile experience, and delivery steps that matter to your business. Record each result, name the person responsible for a fix, and return to the items that still need work before you decide to launch.
- Test forms and follow the intended customer path
- Review important pages on a real phone
- Keep launch problems and responsibilities visible
- Record the fix, then check the result again
Fix the gaps.
Take the next step.♡

A status for each review item

Perfect For You If…
For owners preparing a first website, replacing an old site, or checking a major update before sending people to it.
How You’ll Use It
Work through the checklist on the website you plan to publish.
- 1
Open the real customer path
Start with your main pages, forms, and contact or purchase journey. Use a phone as well as a computer.
- 2
Perform each relevant check
Choose the appropriate status after testing. Use Verify requirement where you still need specialist guidance.
- 3
Record and fix the gaps
Add an owner, notes, and a retest date for anything that needs attention.
- 4
Retest before deciding
Check the corrected items again, then save or print your record to support your launch decision.
Why It Matters
A clear testing record makes unfinished work easier to spot and follow up. This checklist helps organize your checks; it does not scan the website or certify that it is safe, legally compliant, or fully accessible. Use qualified help for requirements and risks that need more than a basic review.
Give visitors a clearer start.
♡
Does it test the website automatically?
No. You perform the checks and record the results. It is a manual review tool, not an automated website scanner.
Does completing it certify my website?
No. Reviewed items do not prove legal compliance, security, or accessibility conformance. Check requirements relevant to your business.
Is it free, and can I save my review?
Yes, it is free for WAHMN members. See the saving note near the top of this page.
