PublishYourSaaS
Conditional free route directory
Researched from public pages — no submission was run · sources read 2026-09-25. Rules change — recheck the platform's own pages before submitting.
What the free route requires
- Free listing is NOFOLLOW by default; the PublishYourSaaS badge must be verified to activate the dofollow link — badge is re-checked every 24 hours and removing it removes the dofollow
- Free listings wait for manual staff review: 2–3 weeks; one free launch per product (free relaunches allowed)
Requirements
- SaaS product listing
- Sign in required — Google or GitHub for dashboard access and listing management
- Paid tiers activate only after confirmed payment
Prepare before opening the form
- SaaS name, URL, description, categories, logo/screenshot
- Badge embed if using free + wanting dofollow (and keep it permanently)
- Plan: Free $0 / Starter $9.99 one-time (3 permanent dofollow, immediate publish, 30-day Premium Partners homepage visibility, relaunches $5.99) / Advanced $49.99 one-time (4 dofollow, newsletter feature, up to 3 dofollow guest posts, SEO title/meta/keywords, relaunches $19.99)
- Banner advertises '40% off on all plans using promocode DISCOUNT_CODE' — literal placeholder code shown on site
Workflow
- Sign in with Google or GitHub
- Go to Submit your SaaS (/dashboard/listings/new)
- Fill the listing and pick a plan
- Free: wait 2–3 weeks for manual approval; keep the badge live for dofollow
- Paid: activates immediately after checkout confirms
Watch for
- The free dofollow is conditional forever — badge is re-verified every 24 hours, not once
- Relaunches are free on the free plan but cost extra on paid plans ($5.99 / $19.99 each)
- Discount banner shows a literal 'DISCOUNT_CODE' placeholder — try it, but don't count on it
- Daily 'boost' gamification ranks products within their plan; paid placement stays protected — free listings can never outrank paid
- 'Claim a Listing' exists for pre-listed products
What counts as live
