startuups
startuups.comA weekly leaderboard where small startups launch every Monday and early adopters upvote. The free launch is nofollow and asks you to visit five other startups first; finish top three or add their badge and the link is followed. A $5 one-time Premium launch skips the community step and guarantees the dofollow link.
