Our take

Sideprojects.net runs daily launches for indie makers and early adopters. Launching is free with a queue that usually clears within a few weeks; skipping the line costs $29 one-time, a relaunch $15, and a featured spot $99 per week. Links on listings are confirmed to pass SEO value (a real backlink), including free launches, but the site has no measurable search traffic.

A daily launchpad where indie makers show what they built, collect reactions, and climb the leaderboard.
