New Startups
Paid only launch-board
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-25. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
Requirements
- Free submissions are no longer accepted per third-party trackers ('costs $50')
- Reported packages: Express Submission $50 (review + publish, minimum 30-day homepage presence) and Express + Social Media Promotion $100 (Twitter/Facebook promotion to 18K+ followers)
- Startup gallery/peer-review model — submission is a written profile reviewed within a stated ~48 hours
Prepare before opening the form
- Startup details and thoughtful answers to the submission questionnaire (narrative quality affects the published post)
- Logo and imagery
- Payment method for the $50/$100 package
Workflow
- Open https://www.new-startups.com/ (expect a browser-verification interstitial — automation blocked)
- Navigate to the submission page (historically /promote-your-startup-company/ or a 'submit' path)
- Complete the startup questionnaire
- Choose Express ($50) or Express + Social ($100) and pay on the redirect to the payment page
- Site reviews and publishes within ~48 hours per third-party guides
Watch for
- Site sits behind a browser-verification wall — headless submissions will fail; use a real browser session
- No free tier currently — any 'free submission' guides are stale
- Homepage presence is time-boxed (~30 days), then the post persists as a gallery entry
- Verify the actual submit URL in-session; older documented paths may have changed
What counts as live
A published startup profile/review post on new-startups.com (and homepage placement during the paid window)
Not verified
- Exact current submission URL and form fields
- Whether outbound links are dofollow
- Refund policy if rejected
- Whether prices remain $50/$100 (figures are from third-party sources)
