Before you start
- A TinyLaunch account with a real (not disposable) email
- A maker handle of 5 to 20 characters (letters, numbers, underscores)
- A product name up to 30 characters and a tagline up to 60

- The TinyLaunch badge ready to embed if you aim for a top 3 backlink
How to list on TinyLaunch, step by step
Create an account
Sign in from Submit Product. Use a normal email address; disposable mail accounts break the terms.
Add maker details
Enter your first name, optional last name, a handle and your optional X handle starting with @.
Add startup details
Fill in the name, tagline, description, URL, category and logo. All of these are required.
Choose free or Premium
Free launches join the queue and go live in about four weeks when a spot opens; you can hold only one free launch per date. Premium ($39) launches next Monday, skips the daily free cap and adds 25% off future launches.
Wait for moderation
A moderator reviews the listing before it is fully live. Premium launches activate once payment is confirmed.
Compete on launch week
Launches are ranked in a weekly competition. The top 3 get a badge and backlink; embed the badge with a dofollow link to tinylaunch.com to get the dofollow credit.

Why submissions get rejected
- TinyLaunch can cancel any launch at any time; upvote tampering and upvoting your own launch more than once are named reasons
- Accounts created with trash mail providers are not allowed
- Listings must pass moderator review before going fully live
Tips that make a difference
- Premium launches are often shown between 3rd and 4th place, which gives exposure even without top 3 votes.
- TinyLaunch's terms say backlinks may appear only on individual launch pages, not the homepage, and DR is not guaranteed.
- Free launches book about four weeks ahead, so submit early if you have a fixed launch date.
- Embed the badge before your week; the dofollow credit for top 3 depends on it.
- If you launch often, Premium's 25% off future launches lowers the cost of later ones.
