Three things worth knowing before you start clicking.
DR is a sort order, not a juice meter.
Many free profile and directory links are nofollow. They still count: direct referral traffic, brand surface area, and citations that AI search tools lean on. Higher authority loosely tracks traffic and trust, but how close a site is 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.
The SEO Agent writes and publishes articles for your site, with links between your own pages and to the sources it cites. It doesn't submit you to these directories or buy links for you. Listing yourself here takes an afternoon, and it's free.
Rather hand the clicking to someone? We sell a separate one-time service that submits your site to 100+ sources by hand for US$299. See the done-for-you service.
Q.01What links can an online store get for free?+
Three kinds: review and business profiles (Trustpilot, BBB, Yelp) that shoppers check before buying, company pages on the big networks, and content platforms like Pinterest and Medium where your posts link back to product pages. All of them are on this list.
Q.02Why are content platforms on a store list?+
Because a store gets found through what it publishes. A Pinterest business account or a Medium publication gives every post a link to the product or guide it is about, and those posts can bring shoppers for months.
Q.03Should I link to my homepage or to product pages?+
Profiles and review sites should point at your homepage: product URLs change and go out of stock. Posts on content platforms should point at the product or guide they are about.
Q.04Are these followed links?+
Most free profile and directory links are nofollow. Where we have read a real listing on the site, the row says FOLLOWED or NOFOLLOW; no label means we have not confirmed it yet. Nofollow listings still send visitors and help people and AI search tools find your brand.
Q.05Where do the DR numbers come from?+
They are approximate, from our own link data. We read each site’s authority rank from our backlink index, which runs from 0 to 1,000, and map it onto the 0 to 100 domain rating scale most SEO tools use. Treat it as a sort order, not a precise score: two tools can be 10 points apart on the same site.
Q.06How do you keep the list up to date?+
Before a source goes on the list, we read its signup page and leave it out if it is paid-only or we could not confirm a free option. On the 1st of each month every signup page is fetched again: a page that is gone, errors out or now sends you to a payment page comes off. The date at the top is the last check we published.
