## Is Smol Top worth it?

Same deal as Smol Maker with a separate badge: a cheap dofollow link if you verify the badge, nofollow plus a ref parameter if you do not. The free queue is up to 28 days. The pricing page says top 5 free launches of the week go into the newsletter. Expect modest traffic; use it as one of several small backlinks rather than a main launch.

## Who should submit to Smol Top?

Suits indie makers, AI tools and small SaaS that want an inexpensive dofollow link and do not mind a badge. Does not suit products that need launch traffic or teams unwilling to add another badge to their site.

## What you need before you submit

- An account (Google, GitHub or email), separate from Smol Maker
- A live website with Domain Rating of at least 1
- A square logo under 1MB and a 16:9 image
- The Smol Top badge on your site for the free lane

1. Sign in and open Submit Project
2. Add name, URL, description, logo and image
