Conditional free route directory
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-26. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
What the free route requires
- Live business-software directory (3,100 tools, 119 categories) — vendors can register ('Become a vendor'), but monetization pushes 'Get featured', 'Advertise', 'Register as an expert' (all marked NEW); base listing terms unclear
Requirements
- B2B software product — the directory covers CRM, PM, analytics, HR, finance, security, etc.
- Account signup; 'Become a vendor' route to add a product
- 'Get featured'/'Advertise'/'Register as an expert' are new paid surfaces
- IMPORTANT: apex discovercloud.com times out — use www.discovercloud.com only
Prepare before opening the form
- Vendor account on www.discovercloud.com
- Product description, category fit, pricing info
Workflow
- Sign up at www.discovercloud.com (not the apex — it doesn't respond)
- Use 'Become a vendor' / Vendor zone to add the product
- Optionally buy featured/advertising placement
- Product appears in category search/compare results
Watch for
- Apex domain is broken — always use the www subdomain; consider fixing the catalog URL
- Angular-era app renders raw {{templates}} to fetchers — JS required
- New monetization push suggests paid features will gate visibility
What counts as live
The product has a DiscoverCloud profile appearing in category search
