“We stopped babysitting a submission spreadsheet. Assets went in once, and we always knew what was queued, live, or waiting on a directory reply.”
SubmitToDirectories vs Freelance Directory Submission Gigs
Freelance marketplace gigs can submit your product to directories cheaply, but quality and accountability vary widely by seller, and there is rarely a structured way to track outcomes.
| Feature | SubmitToDirectories | Freelance Directory Submission Gigs |
|---|---|---|
| Seller vetting | Consistent process across every campaign | Varies gig to gig and seller to seller |
| Directory fit | Curated by fit, authority, and intent | Often a generic list regardless of your category |
| Reporting | Status report with listing URLs and next actions | Often a single delivery message with no follow-up |
| Buying experience | Pay online for Starter, Growth, or Scale | Message seller, wait for a custom offer |
| Requirements handling | Assets and next steps captured per listing | Depends on the seller's own checklist, if any |
Why switch
Teams choose managed submissions for clarity, not just volume.
“Checkout was simple, intake was clear, and the report actually had listing URLs instead of vague ‘done’ emails. That alone was worth it for our launch week.”
“We needed coverage across review sites and niche directories without burning founder time. The campaign felt organized from day one.”
FAQ
Why not just hire a gig for directory submissions?
Gigs can be cheap, but seller quality and process vary widely and there's rarely a status report. We use a consistent, curated process and send status updates with listing URLs for every campaign.
How do I know a gig seller submitted correctly?
You usually don't until you check yourself. We track pending and needs-attention states so you can see submission status without following up.
How do I start?
Buy Starter, Growth, or Scale on the pricing page. After payment we email the asset checklist and begin submissions.
