We crossed DR 50. Here's what it means for your listing
Hey,
Quick one, and a proud one: LaunchIt just hit Domain Rating 50.
A few weeks ago we were at 47. Every founder who launched, shared their listing, or wrote about us helped get us here. Thank you.
WHAT DR 50 MEANS FOR YOU
Domain Rating measures how strong a website is in Google's eyes, based on who links to it. When your product has a page on LaunchIt, it sits on a domain Google already trusts and crawls every day.
In practice, that means:
- Your listing page gets indexed faster
- It has a better chance of showing up when people search your product's name
- It's one more trusted page describing your product, which is exactly what Google's AI Overviews and tools like ChatGPT draw on when someone asks what exists in your category
Every listing benefits, old and new. If you've already launched, your page just got a little stronger.
