I just came across this thread here and it seems pretty active. So people from here are interested, rather obviously so.
Is there a service or a tool that just submits my startup or saas to every single one of these websites? There is a lot of content around the top 20, 50 or 100 directories with good info about each one.
I googled around, but didn't really find much. Some very hidden sites or marketing agencies. Some don't exist anymore. Pricing seems to be one time $50-$100.
Would you pay for this? I know I would.
Is there a reason why there isn't an indiehacker product like this? It seems like it would exist, if it can exist.
M looking for one but so far only headaches and no actual product to promote my business Adloftai
You asked what exactly we are building now :D https://www.goingviral.digital/. Take a look
To be honest, I'm planning building a similar tool on SaaSHub. It will be kind of self-service, but it will help you and guide you how to submit your product to all the viable directories.
I think this would be a very useful service. There is one I'm using call Brandpush.co. It's more general, but it does the same thing but guarantees you'll be put on 200 news sites.
I think something that submits to 100+ sites that are related to the product is much more useful, since now startups can target their audience rather than just getting posted on a general site.
It's also important to note some sites have standards (producthunt and this one), so I'm not sure if it could be made into a tool and automated. Like some others have said, it may have to be a service.
Very interesting. What was your experience with BrandPush?
In my experience they were very useful. It allowed me to build creditability by putting a "featured on x news site" banner to my site and also drove tons of traffit.
One disadvantage is that they remove the news posts within 3-24 months, but that's still plenty of time.
I have seen some online services that do this but haven't seen a tool. Probably because this requires thoughtful process and would be hard to automte
