A business website can look polished and still give the wrong phone number. The most valuable maintenance is often checking facts that affect a customer's next action. For a Kirksville business, the cost of stale information may be a missed visit or an inquiry sent to an inbox nobody reads.

## Check the facts customers act on

Review the home page, contact page, footer, and any service pages for:

- What the business currently offers and whether a listed service is still available.
- Address or service area, with any visit-by-appointment rule.
- Phone number, email, and form delivery.
- Regular hours and where temporary changes are announced.
- Links to booking, ordering, payment, or social accounts.
- Staff names and roles where they affect a customer's choice.

Do not simply look at the page in an editor. Open the public site on a phone, tap the phone number, submit a test form if possible, and follow the important links. A form can show a success message while the message never reaches the business, so check delivery at the receiving end too.

## Tie updates to real changes

Assign one person to own the review. A short monthly scan can catch errors, but the more important trigger is an event: new hours, a move, a changed service, a departed employee, or a new contact address. Make the website update part of that business change, not a task postponed until the next redesign.

Search the site for the old detail after editing the main page. A former address may still appear in a footer, PDF, or older service description. Mark outdated material clearly if it must remain for historical reasons.

This is a website-wide accuracy check.
