Directories
A checklist of free directories and launch sites, with copy written for each one. Work through it and tick Done.
1 min readUpdated
Directories, launch sites and "tools list" communities are some of the easiest backlinks and first visitors you'll get. The Directories tab turns them into a checklist, with the copy for each one already written.
#Where the list comes from
- Starter lists. A vetted seed list of free places, filtered by the tags you ticked on the Profile tab: general, games, dev, saas, ai, wordpress, fintech, africa and education. Everyone gets general.
- Search. Twice a day, your directory campaign's queries look for more places that fit. Click Find more + write content to run it now.
- You. Know a good one? Use Add a place you know at the bottom of the tab.
#Working through it
- Open the place. Each item links to its submission page.
- Write the content. Click Write content and Larvabot drafts everything that site usually asks for: Title, Tagline, Short description, Long description and Tags, written for that particular site. Rewrite content gives you a fresh version.
- Paste and submit. Copy each field into their form. Adjust anything that doesn't fit.
- Tick Done. The item moves to Done with the date, and the progress bar at the top grows.
Not a fit? Skip (not a fit) hides it under Skipped. Unskip brings it back.
Batch it
Directories are perfect for a Sunday afternoon with a cup of tea. Do five at a time, and give the ones with a review queue a few weeks before you expect a listing.
#Does it work?
Directory hosts you've listed are recognised in your reports: visits referred by them count under Directories, and the Reports tab shows Directories done out of the total.
