Moderated usability testing is a method that can be used to improve websites, by observing how users interact them in person. Certain pages on a website may be under performing due to poor content formatting or instructions that are not clear enough. A lot can be learnt by watching how somebody interacts with the information on a website, and questions can be asked in real time if necessary. This provides insights which might be valuable, and explain why the pages are under performing.
It can be useful to test the website once every month to find out if any improvements can be made.

p17, p18 of Cost-Justifying Usability – An update for the internet age
You can start testing at any point in your project, but according to research
“Most IT costs occur in the maintenance phase. Although much attention is spent on reducing bugs, only 20% of maintenance is due to bugs or reliability prob- lems, whereas 80% of maintenance is due to unmet or unforeseen user re- quirements (Martin and McClure, 1983; Pressman, 1992). By identifying these requirements earlier in the development cycle, additional releases and customer satisfaction issues are not as problematic.”
p234 of Cost-Justifying Usability – An update for the internet age
“The rule of thumb in many usability-aware organizations is that the cost- benefit ratio for usability is $1 : $10–$100. Once a system is in develop- ment, correcting a problem costs 10 times as much as fixing the same problem in design. If the system has been released, it costs 100 times as much relative to fixing in design”
