Sign up at betalist.com with your email. Verify your account. Complete your founder profile — this appears alongside your product listing, so make it professional.
BetaList reviewers check your landing page before approving your submission. Your page must clearly explain what your product does, who it's for, and have a way for visitors to sign up or join a waitlist. A polished landing page significantly increases your chances of approval. Include social proof if you have it — early user counts, testimonials, press mentions.
Go to betalist.com/submit and fill in: (1) Product name and URL. (2) Tagline — be specific. "The all-in-one platform" won't get approved. "AI-powered directory submission for SaaS" will. (3) Description — 2-3 sentences explaining the problem, your solution, and who it's for. (4) Category — choose the most specific one available. (5) Logo and screenshot.
BetaList manually reviews every submission. The queue is typically 1-3 weeks long. Free submissions go to the back of the queue. BetaList offers a paid "skip the line" option ($129) for faster review. During this time, don't resubmit — it won't speed things up and may flag your submission.
Once approved, you'll receive an email notification and your listing goes live. Share it on social media, include it in your email signature, and link to it from your website. BetaList readers actively sign up for products — expect 50-500 signups from a good listing. Respond to any comments or questions on your BetaList page promptly.
Orbator auto-fills your BetaList submission form with optimized descriptions tailored to BetaList's audience. It tracks your submission status (pending/approved/live) and monitors the resulting backlink. Orbator also times your BetaList submission relative to your Product Hunt launch for maximum synergy.
