LaunchDirectories

Recently I shared this project in another community and people found it really useful, so I figured I’d share here too, in case it helps others. Every time I launched a new startup or side project, I ran into the same headache: finding where to list it. I’d Google “startup directories” or “launch sites,” click through outdated blog posts, and end up with a messy spreadsheet. Half the sites were dead, and the rest took forever to sort through. For those unfamiliar: launch directories are websites (like Product Hunt, BetaList, StartupBase, etc.) where new products get listed and discovered by early adopters, founders, and investors. They’re not just link dumps — they can actually drive real traffic, backlinks, and early users. Since there wasn’t a good up-to-date list, I decided to build one myself. The result is LaunchDirectories.com a curated collection of 80+ legit startup directories and launch platforms. I also added useful details like Domain Rating (DR), traffic stats, and filters so you can quickly find the best sites for your project. And because submitting to all of them is super time-consuming, I added a service where we’ll manually list your startup on 100+ directories for you. It saves hours of grunt work while still getting you the SEO boost and exposure. No paywall, no signup wall - just the resource I wish existed back when I started launching projects. Hope it helps other founders and indie makers here!
