Features > Startup Directory
Startup directories are also one of the most important placs to showcase your mobile application. They are great to get early traction in your mobile app and get some constructive feedback from like-minded people in tech. Besides getting traction, you can also target related keywords to your mobile application here and get more traffic from backlinks. 🚀

It took us 2 minutes just to find the URL for submission. Here it is to save you time: https://trendystartups.com/members/submitstartup. However, the submission process is quite frustrating. The tagline must be a specific length, and even when I was under the limit by 5 characters, it still complained. Additionally, the image cannot be uploaded and must be hosted on my server, which took another 10 minutes to figure out. After all that, I found out that it costs $29 for the cheapest option. Alternatively, I could have it for free if I upvoted some other products. I went to the homepage and upvoted the first 10 products, but there's a 10-second counter I had to wait through for each one. When I returned to the submission page, it said it only counted 2 upvotes because I was too fast, so I would need to come back 4 days in a row and do the same thing. What a joke. As for backlinks, there's no good backlink from this site. With a strength of 1, you'd get more strength from a backlink on your mom's website.

If you provide a free tier for developers, showcase it on freestuff.dev and receive a backlink with a Domain Authority of 48 (note: this is due to continued listing on the homepage). Consider offering a free tier or a complimentary free side product as a strategy. Many indie hackers have found success with this approach. You can also launch these on ProductHunt as standalone products. Target audience: developers and builders. Submit URL: https://freestuff.dev/ |
