How to submit to Launching Next
Launching Next takes submissions through a form that asks for your email, so the team can reach you about the listing, but you don't need a full account. Fill in your product details — name, URL, tagline, and description — add your email, and submit.
What you'll need to submit
Have these ready before you start so you can fill the form in one pass:
- Your product name
- A live, public URL (your real landing page)
- A one-line tagline
- A short description (a few sentences)
- Your email address
- The category or tags that best fit your product
Is Launching Next worth it?
The dependable value of a general startup directory like Launching Next is discovery and referral traffic — getting in front of people who are actively browsing for new products. Don't submit for the backlink alone: directory links are often nofollow, and a followed or featured link is frequently reserved for a paid upgrade, so treat any SEO benefit as a bonus rather than the reason to do it. For reference, its domain rank is 29/100 (via Open PageRank) — a rough proxy for how much weight a link from it might carry. Since it's free, the downside is mostly the few minutes it takes, so it's worth doing whenever the category fits your product. Either way, a listing only pays off if the page it points to converts — so make your landing page sharp first.
