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 submission enters a first-in-first-out content-review queue: 'could take anywhere from a few hours to a couple of weeks'
  • Email verification is required - 'Links won't show until verified by email you are sent and approved by SoMuch.com'
  • Right after submitting you are offered a paid upgrade 'for quicker approval or better placement'

Requirements

  • Fields: domain/URL, site title/name, email address, Topic + Category (two-level picker), description (max 255 characters)
  • No account required
  • Description cap is tight: 255 characters max

Prepare before opening the form

  • Domain/URL, site title, and a <=255-character description
  • Email address you can access for the verification message
  • The right Topic -> Category pair from their picker (Business, Web Site Development, Internet, Computing, etc.)

Workflow

  1. Open https://somuch.com/submit-links/submit-link
  2. Enter domain/URL, site title, email, pick Topic then Category, and write a <=255-char description
  3. Click 'Submit Link'
  4. On the post-submit screen, either accept the paid upgrade for quicker approval/placement or continue free
  5. Click the verification link in the confirmation email - the link won't appear until verified AND approved
  6. A 'Delete your Link' page exists at /link-delete.asp for removal

Watch for

  • Two approval layers: email verification AND SoMuch.com approval - the email alone is not enough
  • Post-submit upsell for faster approval/placement - decline cleanly if staying free
  • Queue time is indeterminate (hours to weeks)
  • A Rakuten 'ebates' cashback promo is embedded on the page - ignore it

What counts as live

The link is publicly visible in its chosen Topic/Category listing on somuch.com after email verification and approval

Not verified

  • What the paid upgrade costs (offered only after submission)
  • Whether the listing link is dofollow
  • Rejection criteria beyond the FIFO review
