# Submit your tool to ToolFame

> ToolFame is a general online tools directory across 33 categories. Free listings need a permanent badge and a site with Ahrefs DR 10 or more, while paid one-time plans skip the badge and are listed immediately.

- Facts checked: 2026-11-13

## Is ToolFame worth it?

Reasonable for a cheap dofollow link if you pay. On free listings checked, only the text title link was followed while the main buttons were nofollow, which matches the stated 1 dofollow link. The free path is slow (up to 180 days), needs DR 10 and a permanent badge, so new sites cannot use it. The $19.9 Basic plan is the practical choice for makers who want the link without a badge.

## Who should submit to ToolFame?

Suits makers of web tools, AI apps and SaaS who want a quick, low-cost directory link. Brand new domains below DR 10 cannot use the free plan. Not a source of meaningful community feedback; it is a listing directory, not a launch event.

## What you need before you submit

- An account (email, Google or GitHub)
- Free plan: Ahrefs DR of at least 10
- Free plan: a ToolFame badge kept on your site permanently
- Paid plans: one-time payment, no badge

## How to submit

1. Sign in on the submit page
2. Choose Free, Basic or Pro on the pricing page
3. For Free, add the badge to your site before submitting
4. Fill in the product details
5. Wait for review, or go live at once on a paid plan

## Pros

- Followed link even on the free plan
- Paid plans are one-time, not subscriptions
- Paid listings go live immediately
- Wide category coverage

## Cons

- Free queue can take up to 180 days
- Free plan needs DR 10 or more
- Badge is checked and the listing is removed if it disappears
- Free listings may be rejected

## Tips

- If your domain is new, the Basic plan is the only way in
- Keep the badge in place if you take the free route; automated checks remove listings
- Skip the add-ons unless you have a specific reason; the listing plan alone gives the link
