1	# Awesome Indie Platform Help
2
3	Helps the user submit to, optimize listings on, and get the most from Awesome Indie — a curated directory for indie products, micro-startups, and side projects.
4
5	## Step 1 — Gather context
6
7
8	If `references/learnings.md` exists, read it first for accumulated knowledge.
9
10	Ask the user:
11
12	1. What do you need help with?
13	- A) Submitting a product to Awesome Indie
14	- B) Optimizing an existing listing
15	- C) Understanding if Awesome Indie is worth submitting to
16	- D) Comparing Awesome Indie with other directories
17	- E) Something else — describe it
18
19	2. What's your product?
20	- A) SaaS / software tool
21	- B) Mobile app
22	- C) API / developer tool
23	- D) No-code / low-code tool
24	- E) Something else
25
26	3. Have you submitted to other startup directories already?
27	- A) Yes — which ones?
28	- B) No — this is my first
29	- C) Planning a multi-directory launch
30
31	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.
32
33	## Step 2 — Route or answer directly
34
35	If the request maps to a different skill, route:
36	- Multi-directory launch strategy → `/sales-launch-directory`
37	- Product Hunt launch → `/sales-producthunt`
38	- Email marketing to subscribers → `/sales-email-marketing`
39	- Landing page optimization → `/sales-checkout`
40	- Audience growth strategy → `/sales-audience-growth`
41	- Other specific directory platforms → hand off to that platform's skill
42
43	Otherwise, answer directly from the Awesome Indie reference below.

45	## Step 3 — Awesome Indie platform reference
46
47	### Platform overview
48
49	\| Detail \| Value \|
50	\|---\|---\|
51	\| URL \| awesomeindie.com \|
52	\| Founded \| May 2022 (launched on Product Hunt — #1 of the day, 271 upvotes) \|
53	\| Creator \| Diogo Capela (fullstack developer, Portugal) \|
54	\| Model \| Curated editorial directory — submit, review, queue, listed \|
55	\| Pricing \| Free only — no paid tiers \|
56	\| Backlink \| DR ~19-31 (sources conflict), dofollow status unconfirmed (one source says dofollow, another says nofollow — verify after listing) \|
57	\| Traffic \| ~103 monthly visitors (very low — value is primarily the backlink) \|
58	\| Launch cycle \| 1-3 products listed per day \|
59	\| Queue \| Unknown length — editorial review required \|
60	\| Categories \| AI, productivity, SaaS, developer tools, and more \|
61	\| Target audience \| Indie makers, solo founders, bootstrapped startups, small teams \|
62	\| API \| None \|
63
64	### Submission process
65
66	1. Create an account on awesomeindie.com
67	2. Fill out the submission form — product name, description, URL, screenshots, category
68	3. Wait for editorial review — Awesome Indie curates manually, so there's a queue
69	4. Check status on the "my products" page
70	5. Once approved, your product enters the listing queue and goes live within the daily 1-3 product cap
71
72	### Submission requirements
73
74	- Product must have a dedicated website
75	- Must be made by a solo maker or small bootstrapped team
76	- Must be a real product (not a concept or landing page only)
77
78	### Backlink details
79
80	Important: Backlink type is unconfirmed. Sources conflict:
81	- One source (beehiiv newsletter) reports dofollow, DR 19
82	- Another source (LaunchDirectories) reports nofollow, DR 27-31
83
84	Recommendation: Submit regardless — even a nofollow backlink from a curated directory has value for discovery and referral diversity. After your listing goes live, inspect the HTML to confirm dofollow/nofollow status.

88	\| Aspect \| Awesome Indie \| Open Launch \| ProductBurst \| SoloPush \|
89	\|---\|---\|---\|---\|---\|
