186 launchpads to list your startup and get backlinks

listing down all best launchpads and directories, with its dr. be it getting initial exposure or backlinks launchpads are backbone especially for indie makers.

start with dotstore, ourselves. Not just a directory but an app store for the web that helps your app get trusted by humans and agents. You may see slightly less dr since we just started.

the list goes ahead with directories with top dr rating and how easy it is to add.

[ dr is ahrefs domain rating. "badge" means their badge goes on your site if you list for free ]
