Get your developer tool listed in 100+ dev-focused directories
Generic startup directories don't cut it for dev tools. We submit your CLI, API, SDK, or developer SaaS to developer-focused platforms — DevHunt, DevResources, and 98+ more — where your actual users browse.
SEO results vary and depend on factors such as competition, site quality, and search engine behavior.

Generic directories won't help you rank for developer search queries. You need contextually relevant placements.
Generic directories feel wrong for dev tools
The generic startup directories feel wrong for your CLI or API product. You need developer-focused placements where the audience actually understands what you've built.
Your users search on niche developer sites
Your target users search for tools on niche developer sites, not mainstream startup hubs. Without listings there, you're invisible to your actual audience.
You've covered the obvious ones
You've done Product Hunt and HN Show HN — but there are dozens of devtools-specific directories you're missing. Finding and submitting to all of them is a full research project.
Traction without dev-specific backlinks is hard
Getting any organic traction as a developer tool without developer-specific backlinks is really hard. Google uses contextual relevance — dev directory links carry more weight for dev queries.
Why devtools founders choose Effortless Backlinks
A backlink from a developer-specific directory carries higher contextual relevance for developer search queries.
Developer-focused placements
We don't just submit to generic directories. Your dev tool gets listed on developer-specific platforms where CLI tools, APIs, and SDKs belong.
Get found by developers
Developer directories have engaged technical audiences. Your listing puts your tool in front of people who actually evaluate and adopt dev tools.
Contextual backlinks that matter
A backlink from DevHunt carries more contextual relevance for developer search queries than a link from a generic business directory. Quality over quantity.
