Phase 6: Launch

To safely transition your site from the Sandbox to the live web. We handle the technical “flip of the switch” while ensuring your team is fully trained and ready to take the wheel.

A smooth launch ensures that your users find the new site exactly where they expect it, with no broken links or missing pages. By the time we go live, your team will be certified and confident in managing your new digital home.

SLTS handles the technical work of pointing your domain to the new site.

We make sure that if a user has an old page bookmarked, they are automatically sent to the new, correct page.

We’ll go over how to maintain your site, report bugs, and ask for help from The Web Team so you know what to do before you need it.

We’ll keep a close eye on analytics and error logs for the first week to catch any post-launch issues immediately.

This is the BEST time to ask any questions that The Web Team can help with. Once your site launches, we will be moving on to the next Unit site.

Typically 1–2 weeks.
