How badges and links work on Launch It Online
Display our badge on your site to get published. We'll check it regularly and follow your link if your domain rating qualifies.

Display the badge and go live
Every listing can wear our badge on your own website. Head to your listing's badge page, pick a design (shape, light or dark, size) that suits your shop's look, then copy and paste the HTML snippet wherever you'd like it to appear. The badge links straight back to your listing here.
Keep the badge visible for free listings
If you've chosen a free listing, we publish it only once our crawler spots the badge on your website. The founder profile has to be complete as well: a free listing waits for both. We check automatically every 7 days to make sure it's still there. If the badge goes missing, your listing moves back to "waiting for badge" and we'll email you. Pop it back up and your listing goes live again on its own.
When your link gets followed
The badge link starts as nofollow. Our script checks live: it becomes dofollow once your site's Domain Rating (Ahrefs) reaches at least 20 and our spam checks pass. Otherwise it stays nofollow. If you've paid for your launch, you get a dofollow link on the listing page itself, so free listings are treated differently here.
Badges you earn
Launch of the Week, Launched and Verified badges show up automatically when your listing earns them. No copying or pasting needed—they're already on the shelf for everyone to see. A Featured badge is bought with a paid Featured period; it is not won.
