Is a SaaSHub backlink dofollow?

Short answer

No. On the live SaaSHub listing we checked on 10 October 2026 the link to the product carried rel="nofollow", so search engines treat it as a hint rather than an endorsement. On the listing we opened, the main site button carried rel="nofollow". A duplicate variant of the same button had an empty rel, which looks like a template inconsistency rather than a policy.

What SaaSHub costs

Free, with paid promotion. Their own nav describes it as "Our free tool that helps you to promote your product." A separate "Feature My Product" option sells premium placement.

Account and review time

Account: Not needed to start. The submit form is served to logged-out visitors: paste a URL and continue. Review time: Not stated. They confirm there is one: "Please note that all submitted products go through an approval process."

Who SaaSHub suits

Established-enough software that can name its competitors and wants to sit in comparison and alternatives pages. They publish the rejection list: no agencies, no waitlist landing pages, nothing unreleased, no free subdomains, English only. They also warn that leaving the competitors field empty pushes you to the bottom of the queue, and that verifying with an email on your product’s own domain raises your priority.

Step by step

  1. Open your listing. Copy the address of your live listing on SaaSHub.
  2. Run a link check. Paste it into a dofollow checker together with your own domain.
  3. Read the result. Followed passes ranking value; nofollow, ugc and sponsored are hints only. Sites change markup, so check your own listing.
