Go live
From a tenant that works to a shop your customers use: the first week, the months after it, and the checklist before the domain goes on.
Going live is one click on a domain. Everything that makes the click safe happens before it, and most of it is not software: product data structured properly, prices that resolve to the number the customer was promised, an ERP connection that has been watched for a fortnight. Two pages.
- Going live: a week of foundations on a real slice of your catalog, then the order in which the remaining areas pay off.
- Go-live checklist: six questions, each with the screen that answers it. Answer all six before you point a domain at the shop.
The checklist is short because the long version already exists: Pre-launch checks in the Storefronts guide walks every screen. Use this one to decide whether you are ready to open that one.
