Chart your course
When you log a discovery with us, you choose how far into the wilderness you venture. A free listing gets your rare find on the map. A paid launch puts you on the main trail, visible now and indexed by search engines.
The free listing trail
Start here to test the waters. Your basic profile goes live, though some sections—founder story, milestones, screenshots, demo video and comparisons—remain locked until you upgrade. We do ask you to display our badge on your website before publication. Your listing enters the free queue, typically emerging about 6-8 weeks out. The link we provide to your site carries a nofollow tag; thin free pages tend not to be spotted by search engines.
The paid launch expedition
For $5, you unlock the full terrain. Your discovery goes live immediately or in the week you choose—no badge required. We'll index your site with a dofollow link, helping search engines discover you. Several add-ons help you forge ahead: claim a featured spot ($19), or add extra categories and bundles. Free listings can skip the free queue for $9 and launch in a week they choose; a paid launch chooses its week at no extra cost.
Switching paths
You're never locked in. Upgrade from free to paid at any time via /account/listings. Every discovery deserves its moment in the sun.
