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 URL submission; only Website URL and a valid Email Address are required - Title, Description, and Category can be left blank to auto-fetch/auto-categorize
- Submitter must be 18+ (or 16+ with parental consent); site must be fully accessible without registration
- Site must have its OWN domain - no free hosting subdomains
- Valid active email required - disposable/temporary email domains are 'strictly prohibited', and an email hard bounce later PURGES the account and all associated submissions permanently
- Content must be original, primarily in the declared language; SSL strongly recommended; prohibited: adult, gambling, CSAM, hate speech, excessive affiliate schemes, and 'sites primarily consisting of AI-generated content'
- Editorial review 'typically takes 1-2 business days'
Prepare before opening the form
- Website URL on its own domain (https recommended)
- A real, monitored email address (non-disposable) - bounces delete your listings
- Title, description, and category if you want control (otherwise auto-fetched)
- Optional: create an account to manage listings; a public REST API exists for programmatic submission
Workflow
- Open https://viesearch.com/submit
- Enter Website URL and Email Address; optionally set Title, Description, and Category (or let auto-categorization handle it - 'Suggest a New Category' also exists)
- Submit; editorial review takes ~1-2 business days
- Optional: add a link to Viesearch on your site - their bot detects the referer and grants 'Reciprocal'/'Verified' status (site source must contain the string 'Viesearch' or 'viesearch.com'); removing it revokes the status
- Optional: register an account to manage listings, or use the documented REST API for automated submission
Watch for
- Hard-bounce trap: if their outbound email hard-bounces, your account AND all submissions/likes/votes are 'automatically and permanently purged' - keep the email deliverable
- AI-generated-content sites are explicitly prohibited - an AI-content-heavy product page may be rejected
- Reciprocal 'Verified' status requires keeping their link/string on your site permanently - their bot re-validates and revokes it
- Rejected submissions can be resubmitted after fixing the stated issues
- The catalog note says 'freemium' - a Featured surface exists (Random Featured) but no paywall blocks basic submission
What counts as live
The site appears in Viesearch's public listings/search after editorial approval (browseable under its category; newest listings visible at /newest)
Not verified
- What 'Featured' placement costs or requires (not priced on public pages fetched)
- Whether the listing link is dofollow
- Whether the API submission path requires an account/API key
