FAQ
What is a startup launch directory?
A launch directory is a curated website where founders can submit their product to gain backlinks, early users, and organic search visibility. Examples include Product Hunt, BetaList, and Hacker News Show HN.
How many directories should I submit my startup to?
Most founders see the best results submitting to 50–150 directories. Focus first on high-DR directories (DR 60+) to maximise backlink authority, then work through mid-tier directories for long-tail traffic.
What is Domain Rating (DR) and why does it matter for directory submissions?
Domain Rating is an Ahrefs metric (0–100) that estimates the strength of a website's backlink profile. Submitting to high-DR directories passes more link equity to your site, improving your own domain authority over time.
How long does it take to submit to all directories?
Manual submission to 610+ directories typically takes 8–15 hours spread across several days. Using a browser autofill extension that pre-fills your product name, tagline, and URL cuts that to under 2 hours.
Which launch directories give the best backlinks?
Product Hunt (DR 91), Hacker News (DR 93), G2 (DR 91), Capterra (DR 90), and AlternativeTo (DR 84) consistently provide the strongest dofollow or high-value nofollow backlinks for new startups.
Should I submit to free or paid directories?
Start with free directories — most high-DR directories are free to list on. Paid directories are worth considering only if they have a DR above 50 and are closely related to your niche.
What information do I need before submitting to directories?
Have ready: your product name, a one-line tagline (under 60 characters), a short description (150–300 characters), your website URL, a logo (512×512px PNG), and a category or niche tag. Some directories also ask for a screenshot or demo video.
How do I track which directories I've already submitted to?
Use this tracker to mark directories as Done or Skip as you go. Your progress is saved to your account so you can pick up where you left off across sessions.
