Show My Sites Premium Is $10. Every Submitator Plan Includes It.
Submitator files customers to Show My Sites on its paid Premium listing, with the fee included in every plan. Figures and quotes are from showmysites.com on 23 October 2026.
Show My Sites is a directory and launch platform for websites of every kind: SaaS and AI tools, blogs, shops, apps and fan wikis. On 23 October 2026 it held 6,767 listings in 15 categories, and Ahrefs put the domain at DR 71 when our checker looked it up that day. Every listing has its own page, named in their sitemap, plus a card in the directory with a button to your site.
That button is where the two plans part. On Free, its link carries nofollow until their checker finds a link to Show My Sites on your homepage; the Free card puts it as "Link to us or badge · dofollow once we verify it". Premium, at $10 once, follows the link with nothing on your site.
Premium is the route we file on. Its fee is part of your Submitator plan rather than a charge on your card, so your listing goes up followed and your homepage stays exactly as it is.
| Field | What it asks for |
|---|---|
| Website Name | Required; it heads your page and card and starts the page title |
| Website URL | Required; the address the Visit Website button opens, exactly as typed |
| Visit link text (anchor) | Optional, 80 characters, marked “Premium users only.” It puts your own words on the button in place of Visit Site |
| Tagline | Required, 200 characters; shown beneath your name on page and card, and used as your page's meta description |
| Description | Required, 2,000 characters; the About section of your page, with about the first 120 characters on your card |
| Logo | Optional upload, 200x200px recommended, in JPG, JPEG, PNG or WebP; without one, a letter stands in |
| Category, Primary Language | Both required: one of 15 categories and a language, English by default |
| Coupon Code, Description, Expiry | Optional; the description takes 200 characters and an empty date means the code never expires |
| Social Media Links | Optional: Twitter/X, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube and GitHub |
| Add Website | Submits it; the form promises review and publication within 24 hours |
Free: "Link to us or badge · dofollow once we verify it". Premium: "Dofollow links with no link or badge on your site". The page itself looks the same on both plans. What the $10 changes is the link: followed, and no longer tied to a line on your homepage. Your plan pays it.

Read from showmysites.com with GET requests alone on 23 October 2026, 12:29 to 12:40 UTC: the home page, /pricing, /backlink-resources/, the first six pages of /directory/ (newest first, 12 to a page), /coupons/, /directory-list/, /about, /terms-of-service, /refund-policy, /accounts/signup/, robots.txt and the sitemap index with its static, category and website sitemaps; then the listing pages of the 72 newest listings, added on 22 October (44) and 23 October (28). The listing and category counts are the /directory/ counters, 6,767 in 15 categories, matching the 6,767 addresses in the website sitemap. Each of the 72 listing pages carries one anchor to the listed product's own host, the Visit Website button, whose href is the submitted address itself, with no redirector. The card for the same listing on /directory/ carries the same rel on all 72: 19 read rel="noopener" (followed) and 53 read rel="noopener nofollow"; none carries sponsored or ugc. Ten carry custom button text and all ten are followed; none of the 53 nofollowed listings has any. The submitted address of each of the 19 followed listings and of the first 20 nofollowed ones was then fetched once: 3 of the 19 followed sites link to showmysites.com from that page and 16 do not; none of the 19 nofollowed sites that answer in plain HTML links to it; the 20th builds its page in the browser. Three listing pages fetched again as Googlebot gave the same rel. All 72 pages carry meta robots "index, follow" and a canonical pointing at themselves; robots.txt allows every crawler. Each page's meta description is its tagline and its og:image is the site's own artwork on all 72; 58 show an uploaded logo and 14 a letter. Profile links (Twitter / X, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, GitHub) appear on 19 of the 72 pages, 48 links in all, none with a rel attribute. Descriptions keep their line breaks; the two of the 72 written in Markdown show its symbols as typed. Four of the 72 addresses carry utm parameters in two different spellings; the other 68 carry none. Card text is cut at 119 characters plus an ellipsis. Form labels, limits and help text are transcribed from screenshots of the Add Website form taken by Submitator's founder on 23 October 2026. Plan wording is quoted from /pricing (Free at $0, Premium at $10 "once") and the backlink rules from /backlink-resources/. The Domain Rating of 71 is Ahrefs' number, returned by submitator.com/domain-rating-checker on 23 October 2026; the site itself prints DR71+. No listing was filed for this write-up and no payment was made. Submitator's part, as our founder states it (23 October 2026): we file customers to Show My Sites on its paid Premium listing and the fee is included in the plan. He has also stated (25 September 2026) that we write a separate description for every directory, to that directory's own limits. Plans are one-time payments: $29 for 30 directories (Starter), $49 for 60 (Growth) and $79 for 100 (Scale). Most directories are delivered in 24 to 48 hours and every directory within 21 days at most; a refund can be requested within 30 days of purchase, on the conditions in our terms.
The free route: a link from your homepage
Their backlink page gives the whole rule in one sentence: "To receive your free backlink status for your site, simply add a link to our website on your homepage." A plain text link reading ShowMySites is enough. Four badge images are on offer too (a 40x40 logo, a 200x40 name logo and two 200x60 bordered badges), all optional.
Two details decide whether it counts. The link has to sit on the homepage itself, since the checker "only checks the main page of your website", and it has to stay followed: "Any mention of our site on your homepage will qualify for a backlink, as long as the link does not contain rel="nofollow" in the HTML attributes." So check that your theme or an SEO plugin does not add nofollow to outbound links on that page.
The check is not a one-off. "Our system automatically checks all sites periodically." You can force a check with the refresh button on your My Websites page, and the FAQ is plain about the reverse: "If the link is no longer found during the next verification, your "Backlink" status will be automatically removed." On the free route, that link belongs on your homepage for the life of the followed listing.
What the $10 changes
Premium is, in their FAQ's words, "a one-time payment of $10", and it removes the condition: "Dofollow links with no link or badge on your site". It also unlocks the one field on the form that free accounts cannot use, the button text, which the card lists as "Custom anchor text for the link we place to your URL".
The newest listings match those two cards. Of the 72 added on 22 and 23 October 2026, 19 carry a followed link and 53 a nofollowed one. Three of the 19 link back to Show My Sites from their homepage, which is the free route working. The other 16 show no link back, and 10 of them use button text of their own; not one nofollowed listing does. All 72 buttons open the exact address the maker typed, and nothing sits between the click and the site.
So a followed link here comes from one of two places: a link on your homepage that stays up, or Premium. Through Submitator it is Premium, with the fee covered by your plan.
What your listing page shows
Your page opens on your logo, your name and your tagline, then the Visit Website button, your category and your language. Below come About with your description, then a Website Information panel with the Added and Updated dates, then the social profiles you entered. A coupon adds a Special Offer Available! box with the code and its expiry.
For search, the page is set up the way you would want. It is titled with your name, names itself as canonical and is open to indexing (index, follow on all 72 pages checked). Its meta description is your tagline. The preview image when the page is shared is the site's own artwork rather than your logo.
Your card goes into the directory, which lists the newest first, and while it is among the newest it also shows in the Recently Launched block on their home page. It carries your name, tagline, category, language, about the first 120 characters of your description and the button, with the same rel as the button on your page. A coupon also goes on their coupons page, which listed 91 active offers on 23 October, and the latest few show under Latest Coupons on the home page.
The form, field by field
Website URL is linked exactly as you type it. Show My Sites adds no tracking of its own, so if you want the visits tagged in your analytics, put a utm_source on the address yourself, as 4 of the newest 72 makers did. Website Name is your heading, and the page title reads it followed by ShowMySites.
Tagline, up to 200 characters, does the most work on the form: it sits under your name, on every card and in your page's meta description. Write it as the snippet you would want under your name in a search result, with the important words early.
Description takes 2,000 characters and fills the About section. Line breaks survive and Markdown does not render: on the two of the newest 72 that used it, a ### heading and **bold** print exactly as typed. Write plain paragraphs, with a hyphen at the start of a line for a list. The first 120 or so characters are also your card text, so make the opening sentence name the product's job and its buyer.
Logo is optional, but 58 of the 72 newest listings uploaded one and the other 14 show a single letter on their page and card. Use a square image; the form recommends 200x200px in JPG, JPEG, PNG or WebP.
Category is one of 15, and the sizes differ a lot. On 23 October SaaS held 1,868 listings, AI Tool 1,827 and Tool 1,069, while Browser Extension held 43, No-code 28, Plugin 14 and Forum 10. Choose the narrowest one that is honestly yours, because each category has a browse page of its own and a short page is an easier place to be seen. Primary Language defaults to English, which 6,555 of the 6,767 listings use; change it if your site is in another language, since the directory can be filtered by it.
Coupon Code, Coupon Description and Coupon Expiry Date are optional, and a launch offer is worth entering: it gives your page its offer box and puts you in the coupon lists as well as the directory. The description takes 200 characters; leave the date empty and the code shows as never expiring.
Social Media Links print on your page under Follow and your product name. On the 19 of the 72 newest pages that had any, all 48 profile links were plain links with no rel attribute, so fill in the profiles you actually keep up. Then press Add Website; the last card promises "Your website will be reviewed and published within 24 hours".
What we file for you
Choose Show My Sites in your dashboard and the listing goes in on Premium, with the fee covered by your plan: a followed link and no link or badge to place on your site for this directory. Your tagline and description are drafted for Show My Sites alone, inside its 200 and 2,000 character limits, and we complete the rest of the form.
Premium here is one of the nine paid tiers our plans include, each listed at its own directory's price in the savings table. Most directories are delivered in 24 to 48 hours and every directory within 21 days at most. If a listing needs a fix later, the Request changes button in your dashboard is where you ask for it.
Show My Sites review: which route to take
Take the followed link, by whichever route suits your site. A listing here is an indexable page about you alone on a DR 71 site, titled with your name, described by your tagline and carrying a button that opens your site directly. On Free, that link depends on a line in your homepage staying where it is; on Premium it does not. Fill the tagline as a search snippet, open the description with what you do, pick the narrowest category and add an offer if you have one. Filing through us, the Premium route is already paid for.

FAQ
How do I submit to Show My Sites?
Sign up with Google or an email address, then open Add Your Website. Basic Information has four required fields (Website Name, Website URL, Tagline and Description), plus an optional logo and the anchor text field that only Premium uses. Classification takes one of 15 categories and a primary language. A coupon and your social profiles are optional. Press Add Website, and the form says your site will be “reviewed and published within 24 hours”.
Is Show My Sites free?
Yes, at $0, and their pricing card adds “No card required”. Your page is the same on either plan. The Free card also states what it asks in return: “Link to us or badge · dofollow once we verify it”. Until their checker finds that link on your homepage, the link to you carries nofollow. Premium costs $10 once and lifts the condition.
Is the Show My Sites link dofollow?
Yes on Premium. On Free, only once your homepage links back to them. Each listing page has one Visit Website button pointing at your URL, and your card in the directory carries the same rel. Of the 72 newest listings on 23 October 2026, 19 were followed and 53 carried rel="noopener nofollow". Three of the 19 link back to Show My Sites from their homepage; the other 16 show no link back, and 10 of those use custom button text, a Premium feature. All 72 of those pages are set to index, follow.
What does Show My Sites Premium include?
Their FAQ calls it “a one-time payment of $10”, with no subscription. Among the lines on the Premium card are “Dofollow links with no link or badge on your site” and “Custom anchor text for the link we place to your URL”, the second being the Visit link text field on the form, up to 80 characters. Submitator files its customers here on Premium, with the fee included in the plan.
Where does the Show My Sites backlink have to go?
On your homepage. Their backlink page says the checker “only checks the main page of your website”, and any link to Show My Sites qualifies as long as it carries no rel="nofollow". A plain text link is enough; four badge images are optional. The check runs periodically and a refresh button on the My Websites page runs it on demand. If the link disappears, your “Backlink” status goes at the next check. Premium needs none of it.
What are the Show My Sites character limits?
Tagline 200 characters, Description 2,000, Visit link text 80 (Premium only) and Coupon Description 200. Website Name and Website URL show no counter. The logo is an upload, 200x200px recommended, in JPG, JPEG, PNG or WebP.
What is Show My Sites' Domain Rating?
Ahrefs rates showmysites.com at 71. That is what our Domain Rating checker showed when we looked it up on 23 October 2026. The site prints its own figure as “DR71+” on its home page and “71+ DR” on its pricing page.
Can I choose the anchor text on Show My Sites?
On Premium. The Visit link text (anchor) field takes 80 characters and carries the note “Premium users only.” Without it, the button reads Visit Site on your card and Visit Website on your page. Ten of the 72 newest listings set their own words, from “Scan Your Site” to “AI Agent Identity”; all ten links are followed.
What categories does Show My Sites have?
Fifteen: SaaS, Blog, Directory, Marketplace, Personal Website, Mobile App, Browser Extension, E-commerce, API, No-code, Forum, AI Tool, Plugin, Tool and Other. On 23 October 2026 SaaS held 1,868 listings and AI Tool 1,827, while Plugin held 14 and Forum 10. Each category has a browse page of its own.
Does Submitator submit to Show My Sites?
Yes, on Premium. The $10 fee is included in every Submitator plan, so the listing goes up followed with nothing to place on your site. Your 200-character tagline and 2,000-character description are written for this directory alone, and we fill in every other field. 30 directories cost $29.
