## Is Launch Llama worth it?

Worth a free listing if you can keep the badge on your site, since the newsletter feature is the real upside and the link becomes dofollow once the badge is found. The free path has several steps: 5 upvotes, a written review, the badge and about 4 weeks of waiting. Instant Launch at $39 skips all of that. Featured at $49 a week or $99 a month only makes sense if the newsletter audience fits your product.

## Who should submit to Launch Llama?

Suits founders of SaaS, AI and developer tools who want a shot at a founder newsletter audience. It does not suit makers who cannot add a badge and will not pay, since unverified free links are nofollow, or anyone needing a listing within days for free.
