Product Hunt
producthunt.comThe daily leaderboard where makers launch new products and the community upvotes and comments. Launching is free from a personal account, but a top finish takes a prepared launch kit and people to rally on the day. The product page link is tagged ugc, so count on the traffic and the badge rather than link equity.

Who it's for
The link is nofollow, so treat this as a traffic and discovery play rather than SEO. Worth it if the audience matches; skip if you're only after backlinks.
