Why these sites are here
Every directory marked Free (Yes). Free* sites are in the catch bundle. Signup and review may still apply.
23 of 54 sites have recorded traffic observations. Windows and metrics may differ; check each observation before comparing.
A free public resource for founders looking for places to get visibility and users, not only to share what they are building. Results describe this website, not every type of product.
A small independent search engine, not a directory: you add a URL and an email address, with no sign-up form, but the site registers an account for you and emails a link to confirm the submission, which also activates that account. It is spidered and indexed within 24 hours (a site added by 4:00 AM US Eastern is searchable by noon). There is no listing page, and ranking there comes from its own "ASR Ranking" activity. No paid option seen.

Build-in-public community where makers post milestones and add product pages. You join as a person (a maker profile), not as the product: it says product or spam accounts are deleted. Free product page after an email-and-password sign-up (X sign-in has been retired), live as soon as you publish it, with no review. Its Website link keeps your tracking tags and isn't nofollow. No paid option seen. The site looks quiet: its copyright line says 2023, and its featured post is an old Product Hunt launch.

Free weekly launch after sign-in (Google works), on a board of up to 200 free spots ranked by the upvotes you bring; the first free week was 19 to 25 October 2026 on 2026-10-04, after a review the site says takes 24 to 48 hours (a launch submitted that day was approved on 2026-10-06 for that week).

A clicker game that doubles as a product directory: each project gets its own page and a place on a public leaderboard, ranked by stars that visitors earn by tapping, so a project nobody taps stays at the bottom. Free, and live as soon as you add it, after sign-in (GitHub, Google, or X; Google works). One project per account and per domain: the domain is the project, so paths and tracking tags are dropped, and its Visit link is nofollow and carries its own ref tag. Verifying your domain (its banner on your homepage, a meta tag, or a DNS record) is optional and earns a Verified badge and more stars. No paid option seen.
