What you actually get
A business-directory page with a logo, description, products, posts, photos, social links and reviews, under a Startups or Software and Tools category beside law firms and restaurants. They say listings are manually reviewed and live within 24 to 48 hours on weekdays. The link is sold as 'a valuable back-link from a high DA site'; we did not read a live listing's rel, so the dofollow field here is the cautious reading.

  1. Pick a package
    Submit Listing lands on the plans page: Basic $49 a year, Premium $99 a year or Growth $199 once, in USD or INR by region.

Gotchas

There is no free lane: Submit Listing redirects straight to the plans page and the cheapest way in is $49 a year.
PayPal is the only online payment they take, so a card on its own does not get you through.
A refusal is final and comes without a reason: their guidelines say the decision is at their discretion and will not be explained.
