LinkSalad is a launch and discovery directory whose pitch is authority rather than launch-day traffic: “Gain DR 15+ authority with every link you submit.” Products are listed across 100+ categories — Artificial Intelligence (73 projects), Directories (32), Productivity (30), Developer Tools (29), Marketing & Advertising (26), SaaS (25) — and sorted by recency, with upvoting for community ranking.
The submission model is paid, with tiered promotional levels ($10–$35+) sold through the same Boost Domain Rating system used across this family of boards. Every listed project can display a Domain Rating badge; the site advertises a badge and backlink with each submission.
