Why launch day mistakes are so expensive
A weak launch can waste the advantage of a new website before it has had a fair chance to perform. Missing redirects, thin pages, broken forms, or incomplete metadata all reduce the impact of the rebuild.
That is why launch should be treated as a quality-control event, not just a date on the project timeline.
