## Is Dev Tools Dir worth it?

Worth it mainly for a dofollow link, not for traffic. The free lane needs the devtoolsdir.com badge on your site and a domain rating of at least 1, then waits up to 30 days. Paying $9.90 skips the queue. It is one of many near-identical DirEasy sites, so treat it as one link, not a new audience. Add the badge to a footer or a press page, submit, and keep the badge in place.

## Who should submit to Dev Tools Dir?

Suits indie makers and small SaaS teams who want a cheap dofollow backlink and do not mind showing a badge. Developer tools fit its stated focus best, though the feed also lists general SaaS and AI products. It does not suit products that need real users or buyers, since most visitors are other makers, and it does not suit anyone who will not place a third-party badge on their site.

## What you need before you submit

- A live public website with a domain rating of at least 1
- An account (Google, GitHub or email)
- A square logo and a landscape product image
- The site badge placed on your website for the free plan

## How to submit

1. Sign up on devtoolsdir.com
2. Open Submit Project and fill in name, URL, description, logo and image
3. Pick categories and a launch date
4. Add the badge to your site and run the backlink check, or pay for Premium
5. Wait for the 8:00 AM UTC launch on your date

## Pros

- Product link checked as dofollow (rel noopener) in November 2026
- Free plan exists
- Premium is cheap at $9.90 per launch
- Small daily cap, so a launch shows on the homepage for its day

## Cons

- Free plan requires a badge on your site
- Free review can take up to 30 days
- Same engine and audience as many sister DirEasy sites
- Little referral traffic to expect

## Tips

- Put the badge on a page that stays live, since the link depends on it
- Schedule the launch on a weekday you can share it
- Ask a few users to upvote and comment, ranking uses both
- Skip the DR Booster unless you want links from the whole network
