    Find the submit flow

    Look for “Submit”, “Add Product”, “List your startup”, or similar in the nav or footer.

  3. 3
    Fill in your listing

    Product name, tagline, description, URL, logo, and screenshots — match what they ask for.

  4. 4
    Pick the right category

    Choose Directory (or the closest fit) so you reach the right audience.

    Submit and wait

    Free listings are often reviewed manually — expect a few days to several weeks.

SEO notes

Topical relevance matters: Directory directories tend to help most when your product fits that category. Dofollow links pass more equity to your domain.
