# Submit your tool to Product Hot

## Is Product Hot worth it?

A small, cheap directory link and little more. The Visit website buttons on listing pages were dofollow, but links inside the auto-written review text were nofollow. The homepage is mostly other directories and launch sites, so browsing traffic from real buyers is likely low. If you want it, the $9.90 Pro plan avoids the backlink requirement and the daily queue. Add it to a directory list only after stronger launch sites.

## Who should submit to Product Hot?

Suits makers collecting cheap backlinks for a SaaS, AI tool or web app. It does not suit anyone looking for users, feedback or a launch day audience, since there are no visible comments and upvote counts on listings were mostly 0 or 1.
