## Is Makerlist.io worth it?

Worth a few minutes for a free followed link: listing pages checked link out with no rel attribute, only a ?ref=makerlist.io parameter. Do not expect traffic or votes, as recent listings show 0 upvotes and a handful of visits, and spam listings (APK pages, fan wikis) sit next to real products. A paid skip-the-queue option is reported by third parties but could not be checked without signing in.

## Who should submit to Makerlist.io?

Suits indie makers who want an extra free, followed link and do not mind a low-traffic, loosely moderated directory. It does not suit founders looking for launch traffic, feedback or a curated audience.

## What you need before you submit

- A Google or GitHub account
- A live website URL
- A name, description, tags and an icon

## How to submit

1. Open makerlist.io/submit and sign in with Google or GitHub
