STILL DOING IT MANUALLY

Three things worth knowing before you start clicking.

DR is a sort order, not a juice meter.

Roughly 70% of free profile sources are nofollow at the platform level. They still count: direct referral traffic, brand surface area, and citations that AI search engines lean on. Higher DR loosely correlates with traffic and trust, but topical relevance to your niche matters more than the number.

Same about-copy, same homepage URL, every time.

Two rules on every signup. First, write one to two real sentences in the about field. Directories filter out one-liners. Second, link to your homepage, not a deep page. Homepages survive routing changes. Exception: launch listings, where the product page is the right target.

Block four hours, paste and go.

Realistic time to claim a niche-aligned slice of this list is about four hours. Save the about-copy, logo, and screenshot to a single folder so each signup is paste-and-go. Most rejections come from inconsistency between fields. Tick each one off in the list above so you don't double-submit.
