## Is Looking For Tools worth it?

A reasonable free listing if you accept a badge: every listing checked in November 2026 had a dofollow product link. The free queue is shorter than ShipThing (the site says up to 30 days) but only 5 free launches run per day. Premium at $9.90 is an easy add if you want a set date. Do not expect meaningful traffic; the value is the link and a permanent page. After submitting, check the dashboard to confirm the free launch was scheduled and not left waiting for payment.

## Who should submit to Looking For Tools?

Good for indie makers and small SaaS or AI products collecting dofollow links on a small budget. Not useful for anyone seeking a large launch audience, and not ideal for teams that do not want a third-party badge on their site. The catalog mixes software with consumer and service sites.
