What is Nick Launches Directory Finder?
Nick Launches Directory Finder is a startup launch directory list.
The Free Launch Directory Finder is a searchable, filterable database of 156 hand-verified launch directories — places where indie hackers and SaaS founders can submit their products to get visibility, backlinks, and early users.
Every directory in the list is annotated with:
- Domain Rating (Ahrefs DR score)
- Pricing model (free / freemium / paid)
- Focus area (general, AI agents, dev tools, B2B, indie)
- Link type (dofollow / nofollow) — the SEO signal
- Backlink quality (weak / okay / strong)
- Last verified date
Why it exists: most "list of startup directories" blog posts are link bait, padded with 200+ low-quality entries, no DR data, and no way to filter. This tool inverts that — 156 entries, every one verified, every one rankable by the metrics that actually matter for SEO and launch traction.
Free to use, no signup. Built by Nick Launches, a weekly product launch directory for indie makers.

Our expense number one is Meta and TikTok, then maybe a little bit of Google, maybe a little bit of Apple search. I'd say a third is somehow accurate — a third of our revenue, that is.
Paid ads cost roughly one third of revenue — track CAC as a share, not a number
Paid acquisition runs at roughly one third of revenue, with Apple's 15% cut and a small infrastructure plus AI bill on top. A bootstrapped consumer app can stay highly profitable when CAC is tracked as a fixed share of top-line rather than an absolute number.
companies can share their job ads so it's a paid ad that they pay to get listed some months after MCPS came along and that were also a thing... these are also featured so you can pay to get them featured on the site
Monetize Directories With Paid Featured Listings For Tools, Jobs, And New Integrations
Cursor Directory monetizes through paid placements — companies pay to list job ads, and pay to feature their MCP integrations on the site. Layering a second ad surface (MCPs) on top of the original (jobs/rules) is what unlocked the $35K/month run rate at 99.8% gross margin.
There's a play for whatever you're stuck on.
