Free listing or paid launch?
Free profiles appear after a wait with limited content. Paid launches go live immediately with full profile and search engine visibility.
Updated
What you see with each option
A free listing shows a basic profile. Founder story, milestones, screenshots, demo video and comparisons stay locked. Visitors see these sections are there, but cannot access them.
Paid launch ($5) unlocks your full profile. All content is visible.
Going live
Free listings are placed in a queue about 6-8 weeks out. No badge required for paid launch—you go live now or in the week you choose.
Search engine visibility
Free pages carry a nofollow link to your website, and a thin free page may be kept out of search results until it has enough content. Paid launch includes a dofollow link and a page open to indexing.
Before you publish
A free listing requires our badge on your website before publication. Paid launch does not.
Upgrades and add-ons
Upgrade a free listing to paid at any time from /account/listings. Paid add-ons include featured placement ($19), and extra categories or bundles. Skip the queue ($9) is for free listings: it swaps the free queue for a week you pick. Paid launches choose their week free of charge.
