Brand searches: Google Ads Keyword Planner, worldwide, average monthly searches for the site's name, read 2026-10-10. Reach on the rubric comes from this table in fixed steps, the same for every site.
The most searched name in this database, and free: no badge, no link back, no fee, a launch day of the maker's choosing. What it gives is attention on one day, not a followed link: the website button is marked ugc.
A simple trade, stated plainly: a free do-follow listing for its badge on your homepage, or a monthly plan that skips the badge and goes live in seconds. The link lasts while the listing does, and few people search for the name.
A large audience that searches by the app it wants to replace, and the most candid rules in this database: the free queue has no date, and $5 buys a review in one or two business days, not an approval. The link to the product is nofollow.
A free launch that asks for nothing but patience: no badge to be listed and a review within a day, then the queue. The backlink is the catch: free launches get it only in the top 3, Premium at $39 guarantees it.
The clearest followed link in this database, stated in its own FAQ, but no free route at all: the cheapest plan is $39, featured on a random day. A startup that isn't selected gets its money back automatically.
Plans, prices and stated waits are public, and $39 buys a chosen date and a permanent dofollow link. The free route asks the most here: a badge on your homepage, and a queue that ran well past its stated length.
