Client website starter kit

Every new client site needs the same plumbing: lead forms, privacy and thank-you pages, search and sharing tags, and clean markup. Rebuilding that each time invites missed items.

1. Built a structure-only site skeleton with no visual identity, so each client's look comes from the design concept they choose.
2. Included the lead system: a contact form with spam protection, a database for submissions and an email alert to the business.
3. Wired in the search and sharing basics: page titles, canonical links, social previews, breadcrumbs, structured data and a sitemap.
4. Added a build check that fails on spelling slips, leftover placeholders, missing image descriptions or broken links.
5. Added a live check that runs the same standards against the launched domain, plus domain and email setup sanity checks.

• Lead form with email alerts
• Build check
• Live launch check
• Client-editable content
• Mobile call and quote bar

Created in July 2026 and tightened in September 2026 when the standards moved into the build. It is the starting point for new client sites.
