How to Submit to Launchboard (DR 40)
Launchboard is a weekly product-launch board (Domain Rating 40) where makers ship and upvote new products. You can list for free if you display Launchboard's badge on your site, that gets you an SEO launch page and a weekly-winner backlink, with no AI blog. Or you can pay $9 for a Single Launch with instant approval, a permanent backlink, and AI-generated content, with a $29 Launch Pack covering five launches.
Launchboard's free listing needs their badge on your site, and it has to stay live. With Submitator you don't paste it: install our badge component once and it places and keeps the Launchboard badge live for you. You get the free launch listing without the manual work, plus 100 other directories for $29.

The badge, handled for you
The catch with Launchboard's free listing is the badge: you have to put their badge on your site and keep it live to stay listed. That's fine for one directory, but it adds up across dozens, each with its own badge to install and maintain. Submitator handles every one of these for you, you install one component, once:
Badges Submitator places + keeps live
Free with a badge, $9 a launch, or handled by us
Submitator covers Launchboard itself (badge and all), so this isn't Submitator instead of Launchboard, it's the way to get the Launchboard listing without the badge chore, plus a stack of other directories. If you specifically want Launchboard's guaranteed permanent backlink, its $9 Single Launch is a cheap add-on on top.
