ShowMySites
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 listings stay nofollow until a reciprocal link to ShowMySites or their badge is detected on your site
- An account (signup) is required to add websites
Requirements
- Any website/project type accepted: SaaS, blogs, marketplaces, AI tools, apps
- Up to 25 active listings per account on both Free and Premium
- A page on your site where you can place a link or badge (free path)
Prepare before opening the form
- Account credentials (signup at /accounts/signup/)
- Site name, URL, description, category and language for each listing
- Reciprocal link or badge HTML ready to deploy
Workflow
- Sign up at showmysites.com/accounts/signup/
- Add the website via /my-websites/create/ ('Join & Add Your Website')
- Place a link to ShowMySites or embed their badge on your site
- Their verification detects the link/badge and flips your outbound link to dofollow
- Listing appears in the /directory/ and on the launch platform
Watch for
- Without the reciprocal link/badge the outbound link is nofollow — the 'free dofollow' is explicitly a link exchange
- Premium is $10 one-time per ACCOUNT (not per site) and removes the link/badge requirement for all 25 listings
- Payments via Paddle; 30-day money-back guarantee
- Directory contains low-signal listings (gambling/spam-adjacent entries observed), which dilutes link quality
What counts as live
The site has a public detail page in showmysites.com/directory/ and appears in 'Recently Launched'; the outbound link flips to dofollow once the badge/link is verified.
Not verified
- How often the reciprocal-link check re-runs (and whether delisting follows removal)
- Any manual review step before publication
- Whether the 25-listing cap can be raised
