What you actually get
A page at /listing/<slug> whose outbound link carries only rel=noopener noreferrer, so the link is followed on the free lane as much as the paid one. That is the approved page: until an editor reaches it the same URL answers 200 with meta robots noindex, nofollow, so it passes nothing. The free listing is publicly stamped Unverified and its social links and tags are hidden, which is what the money buys rather than the link.

How to submit to MEDIAPRONET

  1. Sign in and submit
    The form takes the URL and their AI Analyze offers to fill the rest. The category picker will not open until something has filled the form.
  2. Put the badge up
    Free listings need it. You can submit first, and the listing waits at a Badge validation required screen rather than entering the queue.
  3. Press Verify my badge now
    On the listing page itself. This is the step that puts you in the queue, and it is easy to leave undone because the page still resolves without it.
  4. Wait
    The page then shows a countdown, quoted at seven days or more, and they say they email you when it goes live.

Gotchas

Submitting does not put you in the queue. The listing stops at a Badge validation required screen, and it only joins the queue when you press Verify my badge now yourself, which nothing chases you about.
The waiting page answers 200 and looks like a listing, but it carries meta robots noindex, nofollow, so a link check that only reads the status code will call it live when it is worth nothing.
The free listing is published with an Unverified stamp on it, and its tags and social links are hidden. The link is the same either way, so what the $19 buys is how the page reads rather than what it passes.
Their AI Analyze fills seven fields from your homepage in one press and writes your page title into the name box, tagline and all, against their own tip two lines below it. Read every field it touched.

Let your agent submit to MEDIAPRONET

Connect SubmitMap to your AI over MCP and this page stops being something you read and copy. Your agent asks for the MEDIAPRONET playbook and gets the brief for this exact form, with the values already taken from your submission pack instead of placeholders you fill in by hand.

What it does for this platform
Checks your product against the 5 MEDIAPRONET rules above, so you find out you would be rejected before you open a tab.
Hands your agent all 8 fields this form asks for, none of them optional, already filled from your pack.
Warns you that MEDIAPRONET looks for its badge on your site, so it has to be live before you submit rather than after.
Tells you what paying buys here, so you pick it on purpose: paid listings start at $39 one-time and publish immediately, with no badge and a green Verified Business stamp. The free lane costs the badge instead, and the difference is published on the listing itself.
Types it into MEDIAPRONET in your own browser, and stops for you when the form wants a sign-in.
Records what it sent, so the dashboard can answer "did I ever submit to MEDIAPRONET?".
