## Is FeaturedTool worth it?

Worth it for AI and SaaS makers who want a cheap dofollow link. The free plan is slow: the pricing card says 180+ days at the current pace and that free entries may be rejected for limited slots. If the link matters, the $9.9 listing plan is the practical choice, since it publishes immediately and needs no backlink. Prepare a clean 1:1 icon and a 16:9 image before you start.

## Who should submit to FeaturedTool?

Suits AI tools, SaaS products and small indie web apps, which make up most of the listings. Less useful for products outside AI and productivity, for mobile-only apps, and for anyone who needs a listing within a few weeks without paying.

## What you need before you submit

- An account (Google, GitHub or email)
- Product name, URL, categories and tags from the site lists
- Short description and a Markdown introduction
- Icon 1:1 and image 16:9, PNG or JPEG, max 1MB each
- Free plan: a backlink to featuredtool.com kept on your site

## How to submit

1. Sign in at featuredtool.com
2. Open /submit and fill in link, name, categories, tags and texts
3. Upload the icon and the wide image
4. Choose Free, Listing or Featured
5. On the free plan, add the backlink and submit for review, then wait

## Pros

- Product links on listings carry no rel attribute, so they are dofollow
- The site says each listing gets 3 dofollow links
- Paid listing is cheap and publishes right away
- Free plan exists

## Cons

- Free queue is 180+ days by the site's own estimate
- Free entries may be rejected because free slots are limited
- Free plan requires keeping a backlink
- No customer support on the free plan

## Tips

- Pay for the listing plan if you need the link this year
- Keep the backlink live if you use the free plan, since the listing depends on it
- Use a wide image, the card layout is landscape
- Pick categories carefully, the site is organised around AI tools
