Submit Your Startup for Free

Get your startup in front of early adopters, founders, and buyers on Launchory — the startup directory where your entire digital presence lives on one SEO-friendly page. List for free, or go premium for the fast lane.

No credit card for free listings. You'll sign in or create an account to submit.

A real dofollow backlink

Free listings earn a dofollow link once you verify the badge — passing SEO authority to your site, not the nofollow crumbs most free directories give you.

Built to be found

Every listing is a fast, statically-rendered page with structured data and a spot in the sitemap, so search engines and buyers can actually discover it.

Your whole presence, one page

Website, socials, product links, upvotes and trending placement — your startup showcased the way a launch deserves.

How submitting works

We verify the badge before review so every free listing is a real site that links back — no drive-by spam, no dead listings.

1

Create your listing

Add your startup name, tagline, description, category, and every place it lives online — website, socials, and product links. It takes about three minutes.

2

Add the Launchory badge & verify

Paste our badge on your homepage and click verify. This confirms you own the site, submits your listing to our human review queue, and makes your backlink dofollow the moment you go live. Premium listings skip this step.

3

Get discovered

Once approved, your startup appears in the directory, its category, and search — with structured data that helps it rank. Early adopters, founders, and buyers browse Launchory every day.

Why submit your startup to a directory?

Launching a startup is loud on day one and quiet forever after. A directory listing is one of the few assets that keeps working long after your Product Hunt day ends: it's a permanent, indexed page that sends you qualified traffic and a backlink that compounds your search rankings month after month. That's why directory backlinks are one of the most reliable early SEO moves a new company can make — they're relevant, they're editorially reviewed, and the good ones pass real authority.

The catch is that most free startup directories hand out nofollow links that pass no SEO value, or bury your listing on a page nobody crawls. Launchory is built the other way around: verify the badge on your site and your link becomes dofollow, every listing is a fast static page with structured data, and human review keeps the neighborhood clean so the links here actually count. If you're mapping out where to be listed, our guide to the best startup directories and the step-by-step on how to get your startup listed in directories walk through the whole play.

Submission FAQ

How do I submit my startup for free?

Create a free Launchory account, fill in your listing (name, tagline, description, category, website and socials), then add the Launchory badge to your site and verify it. Verification submits your listing to our review queue, and once approved it goes live with a dofollow backlink — no payment required.

Is it really free to list my startup?

Yes. Free listings stay live forever and include a dofollow backlink once you verify the Launchory badge on your website. The badge is the only requirement — it is how we confirm you own the site and keep the directory spam-free.

Why do free listings need the badge?

The badge verifies ownership, keeps low-effort spam out of the directory, and is what makes your dofollow backlink possible. Both sites benefit: you get SEO authority from Launchory, and Launchory gets a link from your site. Premium listings skip the badge entirely.

What does the $10 premium listing add?

Premium is a one-time payment that gets you instant approval (skip the review queue), a guaranteed dofollow backlink with no badge required, and 90 days of featured placement across the home page and your category — including a featured ring on your listing card.

How long does approval take?

We review free submissions continuously — most go live within a few days of badge verification, and you get an email the moment your listing is approved. Premium listings are approved instantly.

Can I edit my listing later?

Yes. Edit anytime from your dashboard. Content changes get a quick re-review before going live again so the directory stays high quality.
