# Get a dofollow backlink from your IndieNeed launch

If you want the link on your IndieNeed product page to pass authority, that link is dofollow only after you pay. A free launch stays nofollow.

The dofollow upgrade is $7 once, on top of a free launch. It was $3 before 2026-11-04. Every paid launch from $15 already includes the same link. Verified 2026-11-14.

## What you are buying

- One dofollow link from your IndieNeed product page to the website you submit.
- Free launch: the link is nofollow, unless you add the $7 upgrade.
- Starter, $15 once: the dofollow link is included, with 7 days in the homepage featured slot and no review queue.
- Pro $30, Premium $60 and Ultimate $120 include the same dofollow link. The extras on each plan are listed on the pricing page.
- Payment buys the link and the placement that plan includes. It does not add upvotes or change your rank on the day's list.

## When you should use something else

- Use a directory your buyers already visit, from the startup directory list, if that audience matters more than a link from IndieNeed.
- Stay on the free launch if you only want the listing. The link stays nofollow and the listing costs nothing.
- Use another launch site if that is the audience you are launching to. The Product Hunt alternatives page compares them.
- One limitation, stated as a fact: IndieNeed does not publish a domain rating for this link on this page, and one dofollow link does not decide where Google ranks you.
