## Is SumoDir worth it?

A plain link swap: you add its badge, it gives one followed link, and listing pages checked in November 2026 had no rel attribute on the product link. The directory is small, with the site counting 382 listed websites, and it mixes software with local businesses, so expect little traffic. Worth it if you keep a badges page anyway; the $15 option only if you will not add badges.

## Who should submit to SumoDir?

Fits SaaS, AI and startup founders collecting followed links from small directories. It is part of a group of sister sites (Web Review, CoveragePush, LaunchDirectories and others), so the audience is broad and not software specific. Not useful for reaching developers or buyers directly, and it refuses crypto, adult, gambling and illegal services.

## What you need before you submit

- A backlink or badge to SumoDir on your site for the free plan
- A live website URL
- A short description and a longer markdown introduction
- A 1:1 icon and a 16:9 image
