Launch your SaaS on IndieNeed
A SaaS launch works best when people can see what it costs, try it and tell you what they think. IndieNeed gives your SaaS a launch day on the homepage and a product page that keeps working after that day.
You can launch for free after a person reviews your listing, or pay once from $15 to skip the review queue and pick the day. There is no subscription on IndieNeed's side.
What a SaaS launch on IndieNeed includes
- A product page with your pricing model (free, freemium, subscription, one-time or paid), screenshots and a plain description.
- A launch day on the homepage, where the day's list is ordered by community upvotes.
- Reviews and comments from people who try your product, shown on your page.
- A place in your categories and on the alternatives pages of similar products, so people comparing tools find yours.
- Text and image updates you post after launch, so returning visitors see what changed.
Free or paid
- Free: reviewed by a person, then live on the next open launch day, with a nofollow link to your site. A dofollow link can be added for $3, one-time.
- Starter, $15 once: no review queue, the launch day you choose, 7 days in the homepage featured slot, a dofollow link and a verified tick.
- Pro, $30 once: 14 days in the featured slot and a mention in the IndieNeed newsletter.
- Payment buys placement and extras, never upvotes or rank.
Before you launch your SaaS
- Set the pricing model to match your site, so nobody is surprised at sign-up.
- Lead with the job your SaaS does for the customer, in one sentence.
- Use screenshots of the real product, including the screen people see first.
- Make sure sign-up works on the day: a broken trial costs more than a slow launch.
Why makers launch on IndieNeed
- Every free launch is reviewed by a person before it goes live.
- Paid launches from $15 get a dofollow link to your site.
- From $60, your product is featured in our newsletter and gets its own blog post.
- Your product page stays up after launch day, with upvotes, reviews and updates.
Questions
- Can I launch a SaaS that is still in beta?
- Yes, as long as people can sign up and use it. Say it is in beta in your description so reviews are fair.
- Does IndieNeed charge a monthly fee?
- No. Listing is free, and paid launches are a one-time payment from $15. Nothing renews.
- Will my SaaS stay listed after launch day?
- Yes. Your product page stays up after launch day, and you can keep editing it and posting updates.
- Can I launch the same SaaS again later?
- Yes, for a substantial update. From 180 days after launch day you can request a relaunch on your product's edit page; each request is reviewed before it is scheduled.
