Submit your tool to Smol Spot

Smol Spot is a daily launch feed for small indie products, built on DirEasy. Projects go live at 8:00 UTC each day, ranked by upvotes and comments, and the free lane needs a badge on your site.

Go to the submit page Dofollow link Free with a badge, or $9.90 per launch

Is Smol Spot worth it?

Fine as one more free dofollow link if you already place badges, since free launches need the badge and a DR of at least 1. Daily caps are small (5 free, 10 premium, 3 premium plus), so your product does show on the homepage on its day, but traffic is modest. It belongs to a network of near-identical DirEasy sites, so treat several of them as one audience. Paying $9.90 mainly buys an earlier date.

Who should submit to Smol Spot?

Suits indie makers with a live product who collect launch-site links and are happy to add a badge. Not worth much for makers who want real launch-day traffic, or who will not put a third-party badge on their site.
