1Where it livesIs it the real company's or person's own address or number?

jet2holidays.com is Jet2's own site.

sunbreak-holidays.co.uk is a site nobody has heard of.

2What it asks you to doCheck firstDoes it want a password, a payment, a call, or a tap?

A £60 deposit by card.

The whole price by bank transfer, "for an extra 10% off".

3How hard it pushesIs there a deadline, a threat, or a surprise charge?

No countdown, no "rooms left".

A week for £179 instead of £899, and "only 4 rooms left".

RememberBook holidays by card, with a company you can find on ABTA's or ATOL's own site. Never pay a travel deal by bank transfer.
