## Is Post Your Startup worth it?

Mainly worth it with the $19 Premium launch. The site says only Premium launches, Featured sponsors and each week's top 3 get a dofollow link; other listings are nofollow. In November 2026 most checked pages had followed links, but one had rel nofollow ugc. Free weeks have limited spots and book up ahead, so the free route can mean a long wait for a nofollow link.

## Who should submit to Post Your Startup?

Suits indie founders and small SaaS or AI products that like a weekly competition and some community activity (feed, founder match, leaderboard). Good if $19 for two weeks on the homepage and a followed link fits your budget. Weak for anyone who wants a free followed link without a badge or a long wait.

## What you need before you submit

- An account (Google, GitHub or email)
- A builder profile with first name, last name and bio
- Two upvotes on other startups, per SubmitMap (not verified without an account)
- Product URL, square logo, name, tagline, description and categories
- The badge on your site for a free launch

## How to submit

1. Sign up and fill the builder profile
2. Add the startup details and logo
3. Choose Free with badge or the $19 Premium launch
