A website is easy to promise and hard to check. So the parts of ours that matter are checked by machine, on every build, before anything reaches you.
Heavy pages lose phone visitors. A video that is too large fails our build outright, and page weight and performance are checked on every change.
A check on every change catches the slow creep of a page gaining an unresized image a month after launch, not just how it looked on the day it shipped.
The structured data on a page has to match what the page actually says. Ours is generated from the same content a visitor reads, so the two cannot drift apart.
A page whose structured data claims something the visible text doesn't is exactly the drift a search engine or an AI answer is built to distrust. Ours is derived, not hand-duplicated, so there's nothing separate left to fall out of sync.
Draft or placeholder legal text cannot reach a live page. A check blocks the publish.
"Lorem ipsum" and "coming soon" are the easiest things to forget to replace, and the costliest to leave live on a page a customer might actually read closely, like a privacy policy. A check that blocks the build is the only version of this rule that survives being forgotten.
When we redesign a client document, every visual thing about it can change and not one word of the legal text can. A check compares them.
A warranty or a terms document redesigned for readability is still meant to say exactly what it said before. The check compares the actual words, not just the layout, so a redesign can change everything visual and nothing legal.
Every photo in a gallery we build is a real, completed job. That is read from the file, not asserted in the copy.
A gallery is one of the few places a visitor checks the claim behind it themselves: is this actually your work. The provenance is read from the photo's own record, so a caption can't quietly outrun what's actually true.
No third-party tracking scripts on the sites we run. A check scans every built page for them.
A tracking script is easy to add without noticing, buried inside a plugin or a copied snippet. The scan runs on every build, on every page, not just the ones anyone remembered to check by hand.
When we replace a site, the old addresses are mapped to the new ones as permanent redirects, from one file that is part of the build. The list came from a crawl of the real old site, not from guesswork.
A dropped link from an old address is a lost customer who bookmarked you, or a search result that now 404s. The map is verified against the live redirects after every deploy, not assumed correct because it was correct once.
This is the build discipline behind every LocalCraft website. The wider "do you do SEO" question, including how a page's markup feeds it, is answered in full at Do you do SEO? →
If any of this stops being true, a build fails or a check goes red. That is the point of doing it this way.
