## Is LibHunt worth it?

Worth it for any product with a public repository. It is free, needs no account, and in November 2026 the links to the repo and the project website on project pages had no rel attribute, so they are followed. It does not fit a closed-source SaaS with no repo. Fill in the website and topics fields so the page links to your site and shows up next to similar projects.

## Who should submit to LibHunt?

Suits developers of open-source libraries, CLIs, self-hosted apps and MCP servers with a public repository. Not for closed-source SaaS, mobile apps or anything without a repo, since the whole entry is built around a repository URL. Traffic comes from developers comparing alternatives, so it fits dev tools far better than consumer products.

## What you need before you submit

- A public repository URL
- A short description, topics and your website URL
- An open-source project; a hosted product with no repo does not fit

## How to submit

1. Open libhunt.com/repo/submit
2. Paste the repository URL and continue
3. Fill in the details the site could not read: description, topics, website, docs
4. Submit and check your project page under /r/your-project

## Pros

- Free and no account needed
- Followed links to the repo and website, checked November 2026
- Project shows up in alternatives and similar project lists
- Mentions on Reddit, Hacker News and Dev.to are tracked over time

## Cons

- Only for projects with a public repository
- No stated review time
- Traffic depends on how often the project is mentioned
- Sponsored slots are the only paid placement

## Tips

- Add your website URL, not just the repo, so the page links to both
- Use topics that match the projects you compete with
- Post about the project on Reddit, Hacker News or Dev.to so LibHunt records mentions
- Also check the language sub-sites such as Elixir or Rust if they fit
