Launch plans

Start free with a review or our badge. Pay to skip the queue.

Every listing gets a public product page, votes, and comments. Free goes live on the next UTC day (~09:00) after crawl or review. Paid skips the badge and the queue. Featured is paid chrome on MakerHunt, not the homepage badge.

Badge vs Featured vs backlink

Badge: a small embed on your product homepage. Free crawl looks for it. Dofollow from us follows the badge, not the paid chrome.
Review queue: free listing without the badge. We approve manually. You can add the badge later if you want the backlink.
Featured (€19): how you look on MakerHunt (pill, border, homepage strip). Not the badge.

Domain rating on the homepage is live from Boost Domain Rating (shows 0 until the domain ranks). We do not invent traffic numbers here.
