SaaSHub alternatives: 15 software directories to list your product on
The software review and alternatives directories that get the most traffic besides SaaSHub, what each is good for, and which are free.
SaaSHub is a good free listing for software: DR 81, about 407,000 visits a month and a dofollow link. But it's one site. If you're listing your product, you want it on the other software directories your buyers use too.

If people switch to you from a known tool: AlternativeTo and Alternative.me. Both put you on the alternatives pages of the tools you replace. See how to add your software to AlternativeTo.
If you're open source: SourceForge, Open Source Alternative and Open Alternative. Open Alternative is paid, the other two list you for free.
If you sell to businesses: G2, TrustRadius, PeerSpot, SelectHub and Software Suggest. A profile is free, but they only help once you have reviews. Ask your first happy customers.

Listing on all of them without the copy-paste
Software directories ask for the same details in different shapes: a short tagline here, a 500-word description there, different category names everywhere. AgentLaunch writes copy for each one from a single product brief and fills the forms through a Chrome extension in your own browser, then tracks each listing until it's live.
