The Shopify launch checklist we use for every store
Twenty things we check before a store goes live, from checkout settings to structured data.

Launching a store is the start, not the finish. This is the checklist we run before every go-live.
Payments and checkout
Test every payment method with a real order, then refund it. Check taxes, shipping zones and the order confirmation email.
Search and sharing
Set titles and descriptions for key pages, submit the sitemap, and check how links look when shared.
