When should I check content after a relaunch?

Two to four weeks after launch. Earlier, the technical work takes all the attention; later, it drops out of sight.

Do I need access to my system?

No. The website address is enough; only what's publicly visible gets read.

Does the check cover redirects too?

No, that's a technical question. DustOff only looks at whether the content itself is still accurate.

What if my new site reused the old copy on purpose?

That's fine. Anything flagged that's intentional can be muted permanently with one click.

Relaunch check: what's left over from the old site

The relaunch check reads the text on your new website and reports passages that no longer match the calendar: carried-over years, expired promotions, past events, and announcements of things that already happened. You only enter the address; the result appears right away. It's most useful two to four weeks after launch.

Give the new site one more pass

Enter your address — DustOff reports what's still stuck in the old version.

No account, no credit card. Takes a minute.

So geht es

1Enter the address of the new site. No access, no setup — the address is enough.
2Let us look. DustOff reads the main pages and compares them against today's date.
3Work through the list. Every passage comes with an excerpt so you can find it right away.

What this check is for

After a relaunch, everyone checks the look. The words move over unnoticed — and in a new layout they can even read as fresher than they actually are.

This check only looks at the content: does what's written still hold true today?

Years in the footer and in legal pages.
Promotions and discounts left over from before the move.
Dates that are long past.
Announcements phrased in the future tense for something that already happened.

The right moment to run it

Right after launch, the focus is on redirects and forms. The best moment for a content check is two to four weeks later — once the technical rush is over and the list of things to fix stays short.

What it deliberately skips

Redirects, load time, dead links, and infrastructure stay out of scope. Good dedicated tools already cover those. This check answers only one question: is the text still true?

Why leftovers survive a relaunch so easily

Migrations copy content by section, not by meaning. A promotion block moves across cleanly, end date and all, because nobody reviews the sentence itself during the move — only whether it displays correctly in the new design.
