Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 22 June 2026.

In plain terms: some of the outbound "FIX THIS" links in your dossier — and a few links elsewhere on this site — are affiliate links. If you click one and then sign up or buy, AuditOps may earn a commission. This is how a free, no-signup tool pays for itself.

Our material connection (FTC 16 CFR Part 255)

In accordance with the United States Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose that we have a material connection to certain third-party products we link to: we receive compensation when you take a qualifying action through our links. We make this disclosure clearly and conspicuously, near the links themselves, so you can weigh our recommendations accordingly.

No extra cost to you

Using an affiliate link never costs you more. You pay the same price you would pay going to the merchant directly; the commission is paid by the merchant out of its own margin.

How recommendations are chosen

Recommendations are triggered by issues detected in your dossier, not by payment. A managed-hosting suggestion only appears when your scan shows a slow server response or failing field LCP; a CDN suggestion only appears when delivery problems (render-blocking assets, no HTTP/2, no compression) are detected; a security-scanner suggestion only appears when a vulnerable library, weak CSP or missing HTTPS is found; an SEO/accessibility toolkit only appears when those checks fail. If your site has no such issue, you will not see the corresponding link. We do not accept payment to place a recommendation, and ranking is not for sale.

Programs we participate in

We participate, or intend to participate, in affiliate programs for categories such as managed web hosting, CDN / edge delivery, dependency security scanning, and SEO / accessibility tooling. All affiliate links are marked with a visible "(affiliate)" label and use rel="sponsored nofollow" on the link itself.

Example of a problem-matched recommendation as it appears in a dossier:

FIX THIS → When a dossier shows a slow server response (TTFB) or failing field LCP, faster managed hosting is usually the highest-leverage fix. (affiliate · matched to the issue above, not paid placement)
