## FAQ

### What does the launch checklist score measure?

It measures whether your affiliate program has the basics affiliates need: clear commission, cookie duration, tracking, terms, payout process, assets, landing page, and support.

### Can I use this before my program is live?

Yes. Use it before launch to find missing pieces, then submit the program to FindAffiliates once the offer is ready.

### Why does directory discovery matter?

Affiliates need to find your program before they can promote it. A directory listing gives your offer another searchable surface.

### What should I fix first?

Start with high-weight items: commission clarity, tracking, traffic source terms, payout process, and cookie duration.
