Frequently asked questions

Where should I submit my startup in 2026?

Product Hunt for a one-day spike, Show HN for developer tools, and a weekly launch board such as LaunchAF, Uneed or TinyLaunch for a week of visibility plus a permanent dofollow backlink.

What are the best Product Hunt alternatives?

LaunchAF, Uneed, Peerlist, Fazier, MicroLaunch, TinyLaunch, DevHunt and Smol Launch. Weekly boards like LaunchAF give a full week of visibility instead of Product Hunt's 24 hours.

What is a good BetaList alternative?

LaunchAF offers a free listing with a dofollow link once its badge is verified, or same-day paid launches from $19. Uneed and TinyLaunch are other options with free routes.

Is a paid BetaList listing worth it?

It can be if you are pre-launch and want waitlist signups. If you want a backlink and a week of exposure, a weekly launch board such as LaunchAF ($19 to $39) costs less.

How much does LaunchAF cost?

Free (review queue, usually 30+ days, dofollow after badge verification), Alpha $19 to go live today with a dofollow backlink and no badge needed, or Beta $39, which adds 30 days featured across LaunchAF, a curated 1,000+ word product review, the email newsletter and a Substack feature.

What is LaunchAF?

LaunchAF is a weekly launch directory where founders launch new SaaS products and the community upvotes its favorites. Each launch gets a permanent product page with a link to the product's website.

How do I launch my product on LaunchAF?

Submit your product on the launch page, then choose a plan. Free launches are published after the LaunchAF badge is installed and verified and the launch has been reviewed. Paid launches publish as soon as payment succeeds, or on a future launch date if you pick one.

Does a LaunchAF launch help me rank on Google and AI platforms?

A permanent product page with a dofollow backlink gives search engines and AI assistants another crawlable page that describes your product and links to it. It adds a relevant signal, but no directory can guarantee rankings or citations.

How does weekly ranking work?

Products launched in the same week compete on community upvotes. Paid launches rank above free launches, and within each group products rank by upvotes, with ties going to the earlier approval time. Sponsorships and streak rewards do not add votes.

What kinds of products are not accepted?

LaunchAF rejects adult content, gambling and crypto scams, spam or auto-generated sites with no original value, broken or parked sites, duplicates of listed products, and anything illegal, hateful, or malware-related.
