How do the leaderboards and Launch of the Week work?

Three ranking boards show community votes, paid placements, and domain ratings. Weekly vote leaders earn badges.

Updated

Community ranking

The Community board ranks all listings by votes received on this site alone. The highest-voted launches appear at the top. This ranking updates in real time.

Paid placements

The Billboard board shows listings ranked by money contributed. A minimum contribution of $5 is required to appear here. All Billboard placements are clearly labelled as paid, so visitors know the difference between earned and purchased ranking.

Domain authority ranking

The Domain Rating board ranks listings by their Ahrefs Domain Rating score. Each entry shows the current rating, the trend (up, down, or no change since last check), and the dates the rating was checked and last changed. This gives you at a glance how a domain's authority has moved.

Launch of the Week

Each calendar week (Monday to Sunday, UTC) the top 3 launches by community votes are awarded Launch of the Week badges. These are assigned automatically when the week closes. Winners are notified by email.
