LaunchDirectories is a curated database of 100+ startup directories, launch platforms, and high-authority sites that helps entrepreneurs and marketers boost visibility and build quality backlinks through informed submission decisions.
What is LaunchDirectories?
LaunchDirectories is a searchable, online database of over 100 directories for submitting startup projects. It takes a user's search query and returns a filtered list of directories with key metrics such as Domain Rating (DR), traffic data, link type (dofollow/nofollow), and pricing model (Free, Freemium, Paid). The platform was built by Krzysztof Cichy, who spent months researching directories to save others time.

- Dofollow/Nofollow indicators — Clear labels for each directory's link type so users can prioritize dofollow for SEO or nofollow for referral traffic.
