Most launch sites give you a 24-hour spike, then your product disappears. Most directories give you a dead listing nobody clicks. ShipBoost is built to do both jobs better, and to do them for one specific audience: bootstrapped SaaS founders.
What you get on ShipBoost:
- A weekly launch slot: not a 24-hour reset. Your launch stays visible and votable for the whole week, then gets archived as a permanent listing instead of vanishing.
- A founder-grade listing page: markdown long-form, screenshots, categories, tags, alternatives, so you keep showing up in long-tail searches months after launch day.
- A real moderation gate: free launches require a small ShipBoost backlink badge on your site, which keeps the directory clean and means Google actually trusts the pages your tool ends up on.
- Featured launches at $9 for the first 100 founders: pick your own date, skip the queue, get a premium slot on the launch board.
Who it's for: Indie hackers and solo SaaS founders who already know Product Hunt isn't enough, and don't want to chase 200 spammy "submit your startup" links to make up for it.
What it's not: Not a daily-reset PH clone. Not a low-signal SEO directory. Not paid placements pretending to be editorial.
If you've ever launched on PH, watched the traffic die at 11:59pm, and thought "now what?" ShipBoost is the answer.
