Our Kempt clients have gotten very excited about updating a Book Now button that their old web dev sent to the wrong URL aka a URL that you can't actually book from, scattered all throughout their mobile, table, and desktop versions of the site. haha gotta love it.Correct link for every book now button:Also worth noting - the book now button on the services page links to services, but that's actually incorrect. it'll need to link to the above link as well. And worth double checking our unlinked pages as well.

Here's what we did

Progress update

I looked through each page on desktop and fixed all of the incorrect links. I then noticed on Mobile that the previous developer had created a mobile only footer which was both broken, and displaying the incorrect booking link.

I fixed the footer display issues and the broken link. From there I swept the whole site ( all published pages ) using ‘view page source” to find any further instance of the incorrect link.

Lastly I ran the site through a broken link checker just to verify that there were no 404 issues. Everything should be all set now with this site.

Our Goals
  • Find all links on the site that are equal to - examplelink.com
  • swap these links for the correct one - examplegood.com
