Is SaaSGrow worth it?
Worth it for founders who already share progress in public and will keep posting, since the value comes from repeated updates on a timeline, not one listing. The free plan needs a SaaSGrow badge on your site. The pricing page lists the dofollow link as a Basic feature ($9 once), though every product link checked in the served HTML was followed. Pro at $9 a month makes sense only if you manage several projects or want posts cross-posted to X. If you will not post updates, a plain directory is a better use of time.
Who should submit to SaaSGrow?
Suits indie hackers and small SaaS teams who build in public and want one place to log updates and cross-post them to social networks. The leaderboard is dominated by a few very active founders, so regular posting matters. It does not suit teams that want a one-off listing, enterprise products, or anyone unwilling to add a badge or pay $9.
