## How to submit to Capterra

- Get the submission kit ready (below). Most of Capterra's form asks for the same things as other directories.
- Capterra may ask you to sign in first; we have not checked whether an account is required.
- Open Capterra's submit form at www.capterra.com/vendors/ and fill it in with your kit.
- Check Capterra's own rules for a badge or link back; we have not verified whether one is required.
- Wait for review. Capterra does not state a review time we could verify.
- Use a UTM link as your website address (below), so you can see what the listing sends you.

## What a Capterra listing includes

Capterra is a review site. Business software discovery site where buyers compare products' features and pricing using verified user reviews. When we checked on November 2, 2026, the cost was: Not checked.

Capterra's vendor page says it is powered by G2 Digital Markets, and its listing button opens G2's form. Its "Visit Website" control is a button, so there is no link type to read.

## Link type, and how we know

Link type on a free (or the only) listing: **Not checked**. We have not checked this, so we do not state it.

The pages we opened on November 2, 2026:

- [capterra.com/](https://www.capterra.com/)
- [capterra.com/vendors/](https://www.capterra.com/vendors/)
- [capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/](https://www.capterra.com/p/110968/BambooHR/)

A nofollow, sponsored or UGC link tells search engines not to count it as a vote; a plain (dofollow) link can be counted. Either way, a listing is worth more for the people who see it than for the link.

## Who Capterra suits

Capterra suits business software seeking verified reviews. It covers SaaS, AI, Developer Tools, and its audience is worldwide. It does not state a review time we could verify.

We have no visits from Capterra in our own analytics since Aug 18, 2026. That says nothing about what it would send you.

## What to prepare before you submit

Most directories ask for the same things. Have them ready and the form takes a few minutes. Read Capterra's own rules on its site before submitting; they can change.

- A one-line tagline that says what the product does
- A short description: who it is for and what they can try first
- A square logo and two or three screenshots
- A working website, with a sign-up or demo a visitor can reach

## Track what Capterra sends you

Use this as your website link on Capterra, with your own domain in place of yourproduct.com. Your analytics will then show visits and sign-ups from this listing on their own.

`https://yourproduct.com/?utm_source=capterra&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=launch`
