Our take

BuiltByIndies is a community launch platform where indie hackers launch weekly and share build logs. Free launches take the next open week and may require karma, with an optional badge to move up; Premium costs $9 one-time for 14 days and an SEO backlink. Links are likely mixed, and the young site has no measurable search traffic.

Builtbyindies is an indie hackers community to launch products weekly, share buildlogs, and get feedback from founders and makers building in public.
