Step 04 · Launch & Grow · Ongoing
Launch day is the starting line.
We ship your project to production, watch it closely, and keep iterating with you as your product and traffic grow. The same team that built it stays with it — no handoff, no ramp-up.
Inside the launch & grow phase
- Production launch — A planned go-live with domain, hosting, redirects, and search setup handled, so launch day is uneventful.
- Monitoring — Uptime and performance are watched continuously, so issues are caught and fixed before they reach your customers.
- Measure against goals — We track the success metrics agreed in discovery and use them to decide what to improve next.
- Continuous iteration — New features, refinements, and updates shipped in steady increments as your business evolves.
What you walk away with
- Production deploy — Your project live on fast, secure infrastructure, with a clean handover of access and ownership.
- Uptime & performance monitoring — Ongoing checks on availability and speed, with issues acted on quickly.
- Iteration roadmap — A shared plan for what to build and improve next, based on real usage.
What we need from you
- Sign-off on the final staging version before go-live.
- Access to your domain and DNS settings for the launch.
- Ongoing input on priorities as your business grows.
Common questions about launch & grow
What happens on launch day?
We deploy to production, switch over your domain, and check everything end to end. Redirects and search setup are handled so you keep the traffic you already have.
Do we have to keep working with you after launch?
No. You own your code and can take it anywhere. Most clients keep us on because the team that built it can improve it fastest.
How do we track progress after launch?
Clients get access to the Akazuki Works client portal for projects, updates, and invoices, and can talk directly to the team.
