Where to submit your product, and exactly how
7 viewsshipped 2mo ago1 comment
If it reaches 25 backers, you called it.
Every launch guide says "submit to directories". None of them say which ones accept your kind of product, what the form will ask, or what actually happens after you hit submit. SubmitMap is that missing map. Every platform is a typed record: who it accepts, what disqualifies you, the exact submission steps, expected approval time and whether the backlink is dofollow. The route organises it all into seven phases, from getting launch-ready to the paid channels you should only open last. Connect it to your AI over MCP and it works out what you qualify for and fills the forms in your own browser. No paid placement, ever. Reading the directory needs no account; editorial usefulness is the whole moat.
Every time I shipped a side project I re-researched the same question: where do I submit this, and in what order? The answer was always a fresh afternoon of tab-hoarding, and the lists I found were hundreds of links with no eligibility rules, no form details, and no way to tell which ones would even accept my kind of product. SubmitMap is that afternoon, done once and kept current. Every platform is a typed record: who it accepts, what disqualifies you, the exact submission steps, the approval time, and whether the link is dofollow. The route puts them in the order you should actually work through them, so you are not spending week one on the platforms that only pay off in month three. Reading it needs no account and no email, and no platform pays for placement. That last part is the whole point: the moment a directory sells its ranking, it stops being useful to the person reading it.

The disqualification rules on each platform are the part i wasn't expecting. that's usually the thing you find out after you've already filled the form in. Thanks for bringing SubmitMap in on Havor!
