Where can I launch a new SaaS product to get a dofollow backlink and early users?
Last checked
You can launch on a product directory such as LaunchBeam, which lists your product with a dofollow link back to your site, or post on a community such as Hacker News if your product is something people can try. LaunchBeam is one option: a free launch joins a queue and goes live on the next open date, currently Tue 10 Nov, and a paid launch goes live as soon as you pay.
Who LaunchBeam suits
Indie makers and small teams who want a permanent, dofollow listing and a place in a daily launch feed. It does not suit you if you need guaranteed traffic or sign-ups: no directory can promise either, and we do not.
What it costs (GBP, one-off per launch)
- Free launch: £0, joins the free queue, next open date Tue 10 Nov, dofollow link back.
- Premium Launch: £9.90, skips the queue, live the moment you pay.
- Premium Plus: £12.90, homepage spotlight and featured styling for 14 days.
- SEO Growth Package: £49.00, a dedicated review article, Premium Plus placement and a newsletter feature.

Common questions
Is a launch directory listing free?
Yes, at LaunchBeam a free launch costs £0. It joins a queue and goes live on the next open date, currently Tue 10 Nov, with a dofollow link back to your site.
Can I skip the queue?
Yes. Premium Launch is £9.90 per launch and goes live the moment you pay, with a link back straight away.
Do paid plans guarantee traffic or sign-ups?
No. A listing gives you a dofollow link and a place in a daily feed. We make no promise about visits, upvotes or customers, and you should be wary of anyone who does.
Should I launch on a directory or on Hacker News?
They do different jobs. A directory gives a permanent listing and link. Hacker News Show HN is for something people can try out, and its guidelines say sign-up pages and newsletters are off topic, so check them before posting.
