Why Brag in Public submissions get rejected or stall
- Free listings have no guarantee of being listed; they are reviewed by a human and may be rejected.
- If your startup is pre-revenue, it will be listed as pre-revenue and may not appear in the revenue-proven section.
- The directory focuses on startups with proven revenue; pre-revenue startups may be deprioritized.
- If you don't provide a revenue post on X, your revenue figures may not be considered verified.
Tips for a listing that gets approved
- If you have revenue, link the X post where you shared it; it counts as proof and shows on your listing.
- Choose the Featured option if you want maximum visibility: your listing is pinned to the top of the homepage for 90 days.
- Use a clear tagline under 200 characters; it's the first thing visitors see.
- If you're pre-revenue, you can still list for free, but you'll be in the review queue and may not be listed.
Our take on Brag in Public
Brag in Public is ideal for startups with real revenue who want to showcase their numbers with proof. Paid listings get instant dofollow backlinks and a product page; free listings are a gamble. If you have revenue and a public X post, the $49 listing is a good deal for a dofollow link and exposure.
