How badges work and what they do for your listing
Display our badge on your website to get published and stay live. We check automatically and set your link as dofollow or nofollow based on your site's authority.

Get your free listing live with our badge
Every free listing needs a badge on your website before we'll publish it. Head to your listing's badge page, pick a design you like (we have a few shapes and styles, light or dark), and copy the HTML snippet into your site. The badge links back here to your listing—simple as that.
We'll scan your website automatically to find the badge. Once we spot it, your listing goes live. We re-check every 7 days to make sure it's still there. If it disappears, your listing pauses and we'll drop you a note. Pop the badge back on and it'll re-publish straight away.
When your link becomes dofollow
Your badge link starts as nofollow. We check your site's Domain Rating (from Ahrefs) and run our spam checks automatically. When your Domain Rating hits 20 or higher and you pass our checks, the link flips to dofollow—live, no action needed from you. If it stays below that or doesn't pass, the link stays nofollow.
Paid launches are different: you'll get a dofollow link on your listing page straight away, and no badge is needed to go live.
Badges you earn
Other badges—Launch of the Week, Featured, Launched, Verified—show up automatically on your listing when you earn them. No setup needed there.
Questions people ask
- Do I need a badge if I pay for my launch?
- No. Paid listings go live right away and get a dofollow link on your listing page without needing a badge on your website.
- What happens if I remove the badge?
- We'll notice within 7 days and your listing will pause. Put it back and it'll go live again automatically.
- Can I choose the badge design?
- Yes. Visit your listing's badge page and pick from different shapes, colours and sizes, then copy the HTML to your site.
