Is it worth it for your product?
- Fits
- A launch platform puts a new product in front of its own community, so it fits a product that is ready for first users to try.
- Costs
- $19 to $49, paid once unless the sources say otherwise.
- Watch
- Google treats links bought for ranking as link spam unless they carry rel="sponsored" or rel="nofollow". A followed paid link will count in a tool such as Ahrefs, and Google may simply ignore it. Awiser's own strategy for paid boosts says to pay only where your numbers show buyers arrive, and never to buy a followed link.Read the policy: Google's spam policies (opens in a new tab)Pay to boost a directory that already sends visitors

What a documented test of directory listings found:
Most directories send little: ShieldLabs' Yahor Papou reports 171 sessions from directories out of about 3,300, more than half of them from BetaList alone.
Submit to 10 well-chosen directoriesWhere this comes from
Strong evidence. The directory says it in writing, or two independent audits agree. Its own page is among the sources, listed first.

Before you submit
- Submit to 10 well-chosen directories
One B2B SaaS submitted to about 160 directories: 171 of 3,300 sessions and 2 attributed signups. When directories fit, and how to track them.
- Pay to boost a directory that already sends visitors
Uneed says its skip-the-line fee only moves your launch date, and one $99 BetaList feature brought 5 email signups. When paying a directory makes sense.
- Launch on Product Hunt
Product Hunt featured 6% of submissions in 2025, per Hunted.Space. What the rules forbid, when a launch fits, and what founders report.
