Super Launch Platform Help

Helps the user submit to, optimize listings on, and get the most from Super Launch — a minimalist product launch directory that guarantees every product 7 days on the front page.

Step 1 — Gather context

Ask the user:

1. What do you need help with?

   • A) Submitting a product to Super Launch
   • B) Understanding the backlink situation (free vs paid)
   • C) Evaluating if Super Launch advertising ($49) is worth it
   • D) Comparing Super Launch with other directories
   • E) Something else — describe it

2. What's your product?

   • A) SaaS / software tool
   • B) Mobile app
   • C) API / developer tool
   • D) No-code / low-code tool
   • E) Something else

3. What's your primary goal?

   • A) SEO backlinks (dofollow)
   • B) Visibility and early users
   • C) Both
   • D) Just getting listed everywhere

If the user's request already provides most of this context, skip directly to the relevant step. Lead with your best-effort answer using reasonable assumptions (stated explicitly), then ask only the most critical 1-2 clarifying questions at the end.

Step 2 — Route or answer directly

If the request maps to a different skill, route:

• Multi-directory launch strategy → /sales-launch-directory
• Product Hunt launch → /sales-producthunt
• Email marketing to subscribers → /sales-email-marketing
• Landing page optimization → /sales-checkout
• Audience growth strategy → /sales-audience-growth
• Other specific directory platforms → route to that platform's skill

Otherwise, answer directly from the Super Launch reference below.

Step 3 — Super Launch platform reference

Free vs paid backlink behavior

This is the key distinction on Super Launch:

Tier	Cost	Front page	Backlink	Dofollow?
Free submission	$0	7 days	Yes	No — nofollow
Paid/featured	Varies	7 days	Yes	Yes — dofollow (DR59)
Advertising	$49/month	Carousel on all pages	Yes	Unknown — likely dofollow

Important: LaunchDirectories reports Super Launch as "dofollow, free" generically, but the actual page data shows free listings get dofollow: false and paid listings get dofollow: true. The free tier gives you a nofollow backlink. If you need a dofollow backlink, you'll need a paid listing.

Submission process

1. Create an account at superlaun.ch
2. Prepare materials: product description, screenshots, founder story
3. Submit your product following the platform's guidelines
4. Your product appears on the front page for 7 days — guaranteed, no editorial gatekeeping
5. Engage with the community — respond to votes and comments
6. Aim for the Top 50 Leaderboard — high vote counts get you on the permanent leaderboard

Advertising option ($49/month)

• Auto-rotating carousel placement across home, category, product, and dashboard pages
• Logo, description, and direct link to your site
• Mobile and desktop visibility
• Only 10 ad slots per month (exclusivity)
• All ads reviewed for quality and relevance
• After purchase, you receive email instructions to submit ad details

When Super Launch makes sense

Good fit:

• You want guaranteed 7-day visibility with no editorial queue
• You're doing a broad directory sweep and want another listing
• You can afford $49/month for a DR59 dofollow backlink via advertising

Not ideal:

• Your primary goal is a free dofollow backlink — free tier is nofollow. Use SoloPush, ProductBurst, or Open Launch instead
• You need a permanent always-visible listing — 7-day front page then you rotate off (though you remain in the directory)

Step 4 — Actionable guidance

For users submitting (free tier)

1. Create account at superlaun.ch
2. Prepare: clear product name, problem-focused tagline, screenshots of product in action
3. Submit your product
4. Add UTM tracking: ?utm_source=superlaunch&utm_medium=directory&utm_campaign=launch
5. Engage during your 7-day window — ask your network to vote
6. After 7 days, your product moves off the front page but stays in the directory and can appear on the leaderboard

Note: The free backlink is nofollow. If dofollow backlinks are your goal, prioritize other directories first (SoloPush, ProductBurst, Open Launch).

For users considering the $49/month ad

Compare with alternatives:

• $49/month on Super Launch = carousel ad across all pages + likely dofollow backlink (DR59)
• $12 on Open Launch = guaranteed DR65 dofollow backlink + next-day launch (one-time, not monthly)
• $39 on CtrlAlt.cc = 1-week homepage feature + dofollow backlink (one-time)
• $39/month on MicroLaunch Pro = skip queue + 2x visibility + DR59 backlink

Verdict: The $49/month ad is expensive compared to one-time alternatives. Unless you want ongoing ad visibility on Super Launch specifically, one-time paid options at other directories deliver better backlink value per dollar.

For multi-directory launchers

Super Launch fits into Phase 1 — Instant listings as a free, no-queue submission. The nofollow backlink is a downside compared to SoloPush and ProductBurst (both free dofollow), but the 7-day guaranteed front page is a nice perk. Submit it alongside other instant platforms on Day 1.

Gotchas

Best-effort from research — review these, especially items about backlink type and pricing that may change.

• Free tier backlinks are nofollow. Despite some sources reporting "dofollow, free," the actual page data shows free listings get nofollow links. Only paid/featured listings get dofollow. Always verify after your listing goes live.
• DR59 is strong but only for paid. DR59 would rank Super Launch among the top directories — but only if you get the dofollow variant, which requires paying.
• $49/month is recurring. Unlike one-time payments at Open Launch ($12) or CtrlAlt.cc ($39), the Super Launch ad is a monthly subscription. Cancel if you only need the backlink.
• 7-day front page is nice but limited. After 7 days, your product rotates off the homepage. You remain in the directory but visibility drops significantly.
• 10 ad slots per month. If all 10 slots are taken, you can't purchase advertising until the next month.
• No editorial queue — low barrier. This means less curation, so the quality of co-listed products varies more than on editorial platforms.

Examples

Example 1: Submit a product for free

User says: "I want to submit my SaaS tool to Super Launch" Skill does:

1. Walks through the submission process — account creation, materials prep
2. Notes the 7-day guaranteed front page placement
3. Warns that the free backlink is nofollow, not dofollow
4. Recommends engaging during the 7-day window to maximize votes and leaderboard placement Result: Product submitted with realistic expectations about backlink value

Example 2: Evaluate if $49/month ad is worth it

User says: "Should I pay $49/month for Super Launch advertising?" Skill does:

1. Explains what the ad includes — carousel placement, all pages, 10 slots/month exclusivity
2. Compares with one-time alternatives: Open Launch $12 (DR65 dofollow), CtrlAlt.cc $39 (dofollow)
3. Notes the $49 is recurring vs one-time at other platforms
4. Recommends: only if you want ongoing visibility on Super Launch. For a one-time dofollow backlink, cheaper options exist Result: Clear cost-benefit comparison with actionable recommendation

Example 3: Compare Super Launch with free dofollow directories

User says: "I want free dofollow backlinks — is Super Launch good for that?" Skill does:

1. Clarifies that Super Launch free tier is nofollow despite some sources claiming dofollow
2. Recommends SoloPush (DR46-47 dofollow, free), ProductBurst (DR46 dofollow, free), and Open Launch (DR65 conditional dofollow, free)
3. Suggests still submitting to Super Launch for the 7-day visibility, just don't count it for SEO Result: User knows where to get free dofollow backlinks and where Super Launch fits

Troubleshooting

Backlink shows as nofollow after submitting for free

Symptom: Listed on Super Launch but the backlink is nofollow Cause: Free submissions get nofollow backlinks. Only paid/featured listings get dofollow. Solution: This is expected behavior. If you need a dofollow backlink from Super Launch, you'll need to purchase advertising ($49/month). For free dofollow backlinks, use SoloPush, ProductBurst, or other platforms listed in /sales-launch-directory.

Product not visible after 7 days

Symptom: Product was on the front page but now can't be found Cause: The 7-day front page placement expired. Your product moves to the general directory but is no longer prominently featured. Solution: Your product is still listed — it just isn't on the homepage anymore. If you accumulated enough votes, you may appear on the Top 50 Leaderboard. To regain visibility, consider the $49/month advertising option or focus on other directories where your listing is permanent.

Low vote count during 7-day window

Symptom: Product on the front page but getting very few votes Cause: Super Launch has unknown traffic levels, and your product may not be in a popular category Solution: Promote your Super Launch listing on your own channels (Twitter, email list, communities). Ask early users to vote. The 7-day window is guaranteed regardless of vote count — use it for exposure even if votes are low. Focus your backlink efforts on higher-traffic directories.
