Is Endors worth it?
Useful if customers already praise you on X: listing is free, the profile link was dofollow on every page checked, and the leaderboard is small enough that a dozen endorsements puts you near the top. Without endorsements the profile shows zero and adds little. The optional paid review ($79 shown, regular price $159) is a separate product; the free profile is enough for the link.
Who should submit to Endors?
Suits indie SaaS and developer tool founders active on X with real public praise to import. Does not suit products with no customers yet, teams not on X, or anyone looking for launch-day traffic, since the leaderboard is small.

How to submit to Endors
