# Free SaaS Launch Checklist for Indie Founders

> A practical pre-launch, launch-day, and post-launch checklist so you do not ship a product and forget distribution, SEO, or follow-up.

```yaml
url: "https://www.scrolllaunch.com/tools/launch-checklist"
slug: launch-checklist
keywords: "saas launch checklist, product launch checklist, startup launch checklist 2026, how to launch a saas, pre launch checklist"
```

## How to use

1. **Work pre-launch tasks** — Finish landing page, OG tags, analytics, assets, and your directory shortlist before you announce.
2. **Execute launch day** — List on ScrollLaunch, post in a few communities, share UTM-tagged social links, and stay online for comments.
3. **Compound after launch week** — Embed your badge, submit directories, send a recap email, and ship one SEO page or fix from feedback.

## How to use this launch checklist

Most failed launches are distribution failures, not product failures. Work the pre-launch block until your landing page, OG tags, analytics, and directory shortlist are ready.

On launch day, concentrate on one primary platform (ScrollLaunch for a lasting dofollow page) plus two communities — not twenty half-finished posts.

Post-launch is where SEO compounds: embed your badge, submit to high-DR directories, and publish one lasting article. Premium+ on ScrollLaunch automates the article with 4+ dofollow links.
