Display the badge
Every listing can show our badge on its website. Visit your listing's badge page to choose a design—pick your shape, light or dark theme, and size. Copy the HTML snippet and add it to your site. The badge links back to your listing here.
Badge requirement for free listings
Free listings publish only once our crawler finds a link to your listing page on your website. Any badge design counts. We check automatically every 7 days. If the badge disappears, your listing reverts to "waiting for badge" and we email you. Put it back and the listing re-publishes automatically.
Link follow status
The badge link starts nofollow. Our script decides live: it becomes dofollow when your site's Domain Rating (Ahrefs) reaches at least 20 and passes our spam checks. Otherwise it stays nofollow.
Paid launches get a dofollow link to your website on the listing page. Free listings get a nofollow link.
Award badges
Launch of the Week winners, Launched and Verified badges appear automatically once earned. A Featured badge is bought with a paid Featured period; it is not won.
