It ranks by votes and reviews, so an item nobody rates sits at zero and the link never turns dofollow. Without two people willing to rate it, the listing is a page and nothing more.

What you actually get
An item page that can be ranked in any list on the site, with pros, cons and star reviews. There is a Software type with 2,476 items and a Directory sub-tag holding 210, ranking Uneed, BetaList, AlternativeTo and Capterra, so a launch-adjacent product lands among its actual competitors. The link starts nofollow: they say a listing earns a dofollow once it has two ratings averaging three stars or better.

How to submit to Rank Anything

  1. Sign in
    Google, or email and password. New accounts get a generated handle like misty-rose-bison-45 and no photo is required.
  2. Add the item at /create-item
    Name, description, an optional link and an image. It checks for similar items as you type and lists near matches under the form.
  3. Add pros and cons
    The next screen asks for at least three between them. They are one line each and go on the item page.
  4. Decline the $9 and read the date
    "Maybe later" takes the free lane, which names the exact day your listing goes public, about a month out. Until then it is private and unsearchable.

Gotchas

The free listing is not live when you finish it. It goes into a queue and the site tells you the exact date, about a month out, and stays private and unsearchable until then. $9 publishes it today.
The link is nofollow until the item has two ratings averaging three stars or better. They note that rating it yourself counts, which is worth deciding about before you do it.
It is a general opinion site: your product will sit near Kaiju tier lists and Queens of Pop as well as the software rankings. Check the Directory sub-tag before assuming the audience is yours.
Items are ranked by votes across every list they appear in, so a listing with nobody voting stays at the bottom of a 210-item tag.
