# Submit your tool to DirectoryFame

> DirectoryFame is a database of launch directories that also lists products and sells a done-for-you submission service. Product listings use paid Basic or Pro plans chosen after signing in.

- Website: https://directoryfame.com
- Submit at: https://directoryfame.com/submit
- Type: directory
- Paid Basic or Pro listing, price shown only after login, link type not known, DR 31
- For: SaaS, Startups
- Facts checked: 2026-11-13

## Is DirectoryFame worth it?

Worth it mainly as a research tool: the directory database (the site says 604 directories) shows DR, traffic, price and link type for launch sites. A paid product listing is harder to justify, since the product section is small, prices are hidden behind a login and the link type varied between listings in the check. Read the plan details after signing in and only pay if the plan states a dofollow link.

## Who should submit to DirectoryFame?

Suits founders planning a directory launch campaign who want a list of places to submit, and makers who might buy a submission package. Less useful for anyone who wants traffic from the listing itself: the product section held about 62 products in the sitemap in November 2026, and many are not software tools.

## What you need before you submit

- A live product URL
- An account (email, Google or GitHub)
- Payment for the Basic or Pro listing plan

## How to submit

1. Open directoryfame.com/submit, which redirects to the login page
2. Sign in with email, Google or GitHub
3. Pick Basic or Pro on the pricing step and fill in the product form
4. Wait for the listing to go live, no review time is published

## Pros

- Free to browse a large database of launch directories with DR, traffic and link type
- Sign-in with Google or GitHub
- Some listings carry a followed link to the product

## Cons

- No free listing: the FAQ calls Basic the lower-entry paid plan
- Basic and Pro prices are not shown before login
- Link type was mixed across listings: some nofollow, some followed
- Small product section with many non-software entries

## Tips

- Use the directories table to build your own submission list before paying anyone
- Ask which plan gives a dofollow link before you pay
- Treat the submission service DR promises as marketing, not a guarantee
