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
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated knowledge.
Ask the user:
- 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
- What's your product?
- A) SaaS / software tool - B) Mobile app - C) API / developer tool - D) No-code / low-code tool - E) Something else
- 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 → hand off 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.

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)
- Create account at superlaun.ch
- Prepare: clear product name, problem-focused tagline, screenshots of product in action
- Submit your product
- Add UTM tracking:
?utm_source=superlaunch&utm_medium=directory&utm_campaign=launch - Engage during your 7-day window — ask your network to vote
- 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.
- Self-improving: If you discover something not covered here, append it to
references/learnings.mdwith today's date.

Examples
Example 1: Submit a product for free
User says: "I want to submit my SaaS tool to Super Launch" Skill does:
- Walks through the submission process — account creation, materials prep
- Notes the 7-day guaranteed front page placement
- Warns that the free backlink is nofollow, not dofollow
- 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:
- Explains what the ad includes — carousel placement, all pages, 10 slots/month exclusivity
- Compares with one-time alternatives: Open Launch $12 (DR65 dofollow), CtrlAlt.cc $39 (dofollow)
- Notes the $49 is recurring vs one-time at other platforms
- 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:
- Clarifies that Super Launch free tier is nofollow despite some sources claiming dofollow
- Recommends SoloPush (DR46-47 dofollow, free), ProductBurst (DR46 dofollow, free), and Open Launch (DR65 conditional dofollow, free)
- 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.
