1

Export current URLs

Existing pages are exported before the redesign so useful URLs, traffic history, and inbound links are not lost during launch.

2

Map redirects and canonicals

Redirect mapping gives every changed URL a clear destination and avoids chains that dilute crawl signals.

3

Review title tags and metas

Search titles, descriptions, headings, and canonicals are mapped to the new page structure before development starts.

4

Submit sitemap and inspect pages

After launch, submit the sitemap and inspect the pages that matter most for rankings or leads.
