Is Tekpon worth it?
Only worth it if you see Tekpon as a paid presence in one more software marketplace. The free listing has ended: the pricing FAQ says every new listing costs $249 one time, and the application can be rejected with a refund. The website link on profiles is nofollow, even for Premium Sellers, so it gives no SEO value. Seller plans from $3,000 a year make sense only for SaaS companies that already sell to SMB buyers.
Who should submit to Tekpon?
Suits funded or revenue generating SaaS and AI tools that want another review profile and buyer leads, especially in markets where Tekpon runs events. Does not suit bootstrapped makers on a tight budget, open source projects or anyone looking for a free or dofollow listing.
