Submit your tool to Ship Launch

Ship Launch is a daily launch site on the DirEasy template that describes itself as a showcase of new products, apps, plugins and open source projects. Launches go live at 8:00 AM UTC and rank by upvotes and comments.

Is Ship Launch worth it?

Worth a free entry for the followed link if you are already adding badges for other launch sites. It is a sibling of Dev Lanz with the same pricing and wizard, so do not expect a different audience. The site says it takes up to 20 free launches a day, a bigger free quota than Dev Lanz. Paying only moves the date earlier.

Who should submit to Ship Launch?

Suits indie makers of SaaS, apps, plugins and open source projects who want a followed link from a launch site. Not a fit for teams seeking real launch traffic, or for makers who do not want to place a badge.
