Is App Networker worth it?
Low priority. Standard listings checked in November 2026 carried nofollow product links, and the free route needs a badge that links back to your listing, which is a poor trade for a nofollow link. Only a few featured listings had dofollow links. Consider it only if you want broad directory coverage and are already submitting to its sister sites in one pass.
Who should submit to App Networker?
Suits makers of SaaS tools, web apps and AI products who are doing a wide directory sweep. Not worth the effort for anyone focused on SEO value, since normal listings are nofollow, or for anyone who does not want a reciprocal badge on their site. Catalog includes legal firms and consumer AI apps, so the audience is mixed.
