## What a SideProjectors listing includes

Listings are either for sale or a showcase. Paid memberships unlock contact limits, not listing.

## Link type, and how we know

Link type on a free (or the only) listing: **Nofollow**. We read it on the site's own pricing, FAQ or submit page, or from the rel attribute on the link a public listing gives the listed product.

Conditions: Nofollow ugc in the page HTML

The pages we opened on November 2, 2026:

- [sideprojectors.com/](https://www.sideprojectors.com/)
- [sideprojectors.com/submit/type](https://www.sideprojectors.com/submit/type)
- [sideprojectors.com/help/home](https://www.sideprojectors.com/help/home)

- [sideprojectors.com/project/106735/findry-ai](https://www.sideprojectors.com/project/106735/findry-ai)

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.
