From finished site to live site.

What happens in the last stretch, who does what, and what you end up with. Ten short steps and a checklist at the end.

I do this Foren WebYou do this YouThird party Domain company or host, with their own fees

Final website review

I do this I send you a private link to the finished site. You do this You read every page slowly and send me one list of everything you want changed.

Two rounds of changes are included before launch. One complete list is quicker than many small messages.

Test on desktop and mobile

I do this I test the site on phone, tablet and computer. You do this You open the link on your own phone and your own computer and tell me anything that looks off.

Check your contact details

You do this Check your phone number, WhatsApp number, email, opening hours and areas, letter by letter. Only your own details can be right.

Check forms and links

I do this I test every link and button. You do this Send a test enquiry from the form and confirm it arrives on your WhatsApp.

Connect your domain

Third party The domain is bought from a domain company, with its own fee. You do this You change the nameservers or records I send you, copying them exactly. I do this I check it is working. Step by step: the domain guide.

Hosting and deployment

I do this I put the site on the host, normally Cloudflare Pages or Vercel, and connect it to your domain. Third party The host has its own plan and fees, which I tell you before we start. You do not need to buy traditional web hosting.

Check the padlock and https

I do this The host issues the security certificate itself once the domain is connected. You do this Open your address on your phone and look for the padlock and https://. If it is not there yet, give it a few hours and tell me.

Go live

I do this When you say you are happy and we have agreed payment, I switch the site on and message you the moment your address works. You do this Open it, send a test enquiry and share the address with a friend.

What you receive

  • Your finished website, live on your own address
  • The domain for the first year, if I set it up for you
  • The domain held in your own account, or moved there for free whenever you ask
  • Your site files, if you want a copy
  • Any optional extras you chose in the calculator, such as the edit-it-yourself login

Changing things later

  • Small changes to text, photos and prices are free
  • Anything from the calculator can be added later for the same price
  • Bigger changes, such as new pages or a redesign, we talk about first and I give you a price
  • From the second year it costs €30 a year for the domain renewal and small changes, if I look after the domain for you

I only promise what is written here. If you need something else, ask and I will tell you plainly whether I can do it.

Final checklist

Tick each one as you go. Nothing is saved or sent.
