Free route review
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 company listing for business software vendors via https://www.serchen.com/get-listed/
- Multi-step submission described by an independent submitter as 'labor intensive' - expect more than a single form
- Company verification step exists; after verification Serchen offers a paid upgrade plan
Prepare before opening the form
- Standard submission kit: product name, live URL, ~60-char tagline, ~250-char short description, square logo 512px+, 2-3 screenshots, pricing model, category
- Company details for verification (website, contact info)
- An email address you monitor - verification and upsell contact come by email
Workflow
- Open https://www.serchen.com/get-listed/ in a real browser (blocked automated fetches)
- Complete the multi-step listing application with company and product details
- Complete whatever verification Serchen requests (independent report: the company 'will offer you paid plan when you are verified')
- Decline the paid upgrade if only the free listing is wanted; the free listing still creates a public company page (e.g. serchen.com/company/<slug>/)
Watch for
- Expect persistent paid-upgrade solicitation after verification - third-party experience report calls it 'spamming you afterwards to pay to upgrade'
- The 403 on automated fetch means the flow is browser-only; plan a manual session
- Independent reviewer noted 'no actual improvement in web traffic' - treat the dofollow link/profile as the value, not referral traffic
- The same site operates lead-gen contact forms for advertising - don't fill the wrong form
What counts as live
A public company page exists at serchen.com/company/<slug>/ visible without login
Not verified
- Exact fields/steps of the get-listed flow (page did not render publicly)
- Verification mechanism and approval SLA
- Current prices of the paid upgrade plans
