Before publishing, thoroughly review your `package.json` file. Ensure the `name` field is unique and valid, the `version` field follows semantic versioning, and essential fields like `description`, `main` (if applicable), `license`, and `repository` are present and correctly formatted. Use `npm validate` if available, or a linter.
