Questions
- Does paying change my ranking?
- No. Votes decide the ranking for everyone. Paid products buy a date, a featured spot or a sponsor slot, all clearly labelled.
- When does a free listing go live?
- On the first Monday after you submit. With a Boost it goes live as soon as you pay. Either way it stays in the directory afterwards.
- Do I get a backlink?
- The top 3 of every launch week get a followed link. Paid listings get a link marked rel=sponsored, as Google requires for paid links. Everyone else gets nofollow.
- Is VAT added at checkout?
- No. launchboost is run by a small business under § 19 UStG, so no VAT is charged. The price you see is the price you pay.
- Can I withdraw?
- Consumers in the EU have a 14-day right of withdrawal. Use the withdrawal form linked in the footer. Details are in the withdrawal instructions.
