Frequently asked questions
Is listing my startup on Launchory really free?
Yes. Free listings stay live forever. The one requirement: display the Launchory badge on your website — verifying it submits your listing for review, and your listing link is dofollow from the day it goes live.
Why is the badge required for free listings?
The badge is how we verify you own the site and keep the directory spam-free — and it is what makes your dofollow backlink possible. Premium listings skip the badge requirement entirely.
What does the premium listing include?
Premium is a one-time $10 payment that gets you instant approval (skip the queue), a guaranteed dofollow backlink with no badge required, and 90 days of featured placement across the directory.
What is a dofollow backlink and why does it matter?
A dofollow link passes SEO authority from Launchory (Ahrefs DR 50+ / Moz DA 40) to your website, helping your search rankings. Because badge verification happens before review, every approved free listing carries a dofollow link from the day it goes live — there is no nofollow waiting period and no weekly-winner requirement.
How long does approval take for free listings?
We review submissions continuously. Most free listings are approved within a few days — there is no waiting line and no queue you have to pay to skip. You get an email the moment your listing goes live.
Can I edit my listing after it is approved?
Yes, you can edit anytime from your dashboard. Content changes are re-reviewed briefly before going live again to keep directory quality high.
