Launch & SEO
Launch checklist, SEO, AI search and going live.
- What is the launch checklist?A 22-item checklist at /launch that covers SEO, legal, performance, analytics and accessibility. Items are auto-detected where possible.
- How do I launch a project?Complete the checklist at /launch, then choose Go live. The canonical domain is activated and the announcement helpers open.
- Why is my launch blocked by the checklist?Critical items — legal pages, canonical domain, robots.txt — must be green before launch. The checklist explains exactly what is missing.
- Are SEO meta tags added to every page?Yes. Title, description, canonical, OpenGraph and Twitter cards are emitted from every public route via the pageHead helper.
- Which structured data is included?Organization on the homepage, Article on knowledge articles, FAQPage on FAQ pages, BreadcrumbList where applicable. All blocks are validated before launch.
- Is a sitemap.xml generated automatically?Yes. /sitemap.xml is generated dynamically and includes hreflang for every supported language.
- Is robots.txt managed for me?Yes. The default robots.txt allows indexing and points to the sitemap. You can edit it in Settings, SEO, Robots.
- Does Blanca's Builder support AI search engines?Yes. We emit clean JSON-LD, declare authorship and avoid thin generic content — the patterns AI answer engines reward.
- Should I submit my sitemap to Google Search Console?Yes. Add the property and submit /sitemap.xml. Most properties are indexed within a few days.
- Is analytics included out of the box?Privacy-friendly first-party analytics are included on all plans. You can also connect Google Analytics, Plausible or Fathom from Settings, Analytics.
- Is there a performance budget?Yes. The launch checklist measures Core Web Vitals on the production build and blocks launch if the homepage fails any vital.
- Are accessibility checks part of launch?Yes. Automated WCAG 2.1 AA checks run against every public route. Critical violations block launch until resolved.
- Can I share a pre-launch preview with stakeholders?Yes. Project, Share, Reviewer link generates a password-protected URL with optional expiry.
- How do I add redirects from an old site?Settings, SEO, Redirects accepts a CSV of source-target pairs. Redirects are served at the edge so they do not slow the site down.
- Are translations checked at launch?Yes. The build fails if any non-source language is missing a key. With Blanca's Builder all 24 languages must be 100% manually translated.
- Are OpenGraph images generated automatically?Default OG images are generated per page. You can override per route via Settings, SEO, OG images.
- Are blog posts added to the sitemap automatically?Yes. Any blog post or knowledge article is added to /sitemap.xml as soon as it is published.
- Are favicons and app icons set up automatically?Yes. Provide a 512px source image in Settings, Branding and we generate every favicon and PWA icon size needed.
- Is there a public status page?Yes. /trust/uptime shows the historical uptime of the platform. Each customer can also create an internal status page for their own service.
- What monitoring runs after launch?Synthetic uptime checks, error reporting and Core Web Vitals are tracked continuously. Alerts are sent to the email or webhook you configure.
