Introduction
What is Website QA & Why it Matters
Website QA is the process of reviewing websites for bugs, broken links, design inconsistencies, and usability issues before launch. It involves collaboration between designers, developers, project managers, and clients.
Traditional website QA often relies on long spreadsheets, confusing email threads, or scattered screenshots. These outdated methods waste time, cause miscommunication, and leave critical feedback unresolved.
BugSmash replaces these inefficiencies with a modern, collaborative platform where feedback is visual, organized, and actionable, helping teams launch websites faster and with confidence.
Challenges
Common Challenges in Website QA
Website QA often slows projects down when feedback is disorganized, incomplete, or delayed. Here are the most common hurdles teams face.
Disorganized Feedback
Emails, chat threads, and spreadsheets scatter feedback, making it hard to track progress.
Missing Context
Screenshots or vague notes don’t provide enough clarity, leading to wasted back-and-forth.
Lack of Prioritization
Teams struggle to separate critical issues from nice-to-have fixes.
Version Confusion
Feedback often applies to outdated website versions, causing duplicate work or overlooked issues.
Slow Approvals
Waiting for stakeholders or clients to respond delays launches unnecessarily.
Poor Collaboration Across Roles
Designers, developers, and clients often lack a single platform to align on QA feedback.

“I recently used BugSmash for a website project where I needed to gather feedback without the hassle of scheduling meetings. The platform allowed me to record an asynchronous video using OBS, which I then uploaded to BugSmash. Clients were able to comment on specific timestamps of the video as I posed my questions, and surprisingly, even those who aren't very tech-savvy managed to provide insightful feedback. I had previously attempted similar processes with other platforms like Loom, but BugSmash stood out since it requires no sign-in (optional)—users simply add their name. Overall, the value and affordability of BugSmash make it an impressive choice for anyone needing a comprehensive review solution for PDFs, images, audio, video, and live websites.“
