What to know before you submit
The pricing card lists a free "Dofollow Backlink" reviewed in 24 hours, but the free submit flow asks you to "add our partner's link to your footer" and quotes a review of 72 hours to 4 weeks.
Basic at $9.99 keeps the listing forever and skips the queue.
Is it worth it for your product?
- Fits
- An AI directory lists tools that use AI, so it fits a product that does and says so on its own site.
- Costs
- Nothing to pay, but your own site has to link to showmebest.ai. The followed link is the other half of that trade.
- Watch
- The link back is a link exchange. Google lists excessive link exchanges as link spam; one badge is a small trade, many are a pattern.Read the policy: Google's spam policies (opens in a new tab)
