Is Wayfindio worth it?
Worth it if you want a followed link and can live with a badge in your footer. The product page links out with an empty rel attribute, so the link is followed. The recent intake is a mixed bag of AI generators, downloaders and game scripts, so expect little curated traffic. If you do not want the badge, the $9 one time plan removes it. Sign in with Google before you start the form and write your own 500 character description.
Who should submit to Wayfindio?
Suits makers of AI tools, SaaS products, developer tools and other web apps who are collecting followed links from directories. Less useful for anyone hoping for buyers or real referral traffic, since the site is a large, loosely filtered catalogue rather than a curated list. Not a fit if you refuse to place third party badges on your site and do not want to pay.
