A dash means the rating hasn't been fetched yet. Free tier and link are what each site says on its own submit, pricing or FAQ page (checked 9 November 2026); “Not stated” means it doesn't say. Hover a link type for the details. Each platform links to its own Domain Rating page.

Methodology

  • The list is Pingsold's: launch boards, directories, AI tools directories, communities and review sites founders commonly submit to. It starts from the 46 launch sites we measured on 9 November 2026 and adds the larger directories. Free tier and link type are what each site says about itself, where we've checked.
  • The ratings are Ahrefs', both versions, from their free Domain Rating API (version=dr3 and version=dr4), rounded to whole numbers. Each site is re-fetched about once a week. We don't adjust or verify them.
  • Change is DR4 minus DR3. Biggest drops are the five largest falls; held up are the five sites with a DR3 of 30 or more that lost least.
  • DR4 is a preview until 1 December 2026, so the numbers can still move.
