Your backlink just got stronger (DR 26 → 45)
Quick one.
LaunchIt just hit Domain Rating 45. It was 26 at the start of August.
If you already have a product listed, here's what that means for you: the backlink you got is now coming from a domain nearly twice as strong as when you submitted. You didn't do anything. It just improved while you were working on something else.
That's the part I care about most. Most places you pay for a link, it's worth the same forever, or less as the site decays. Here it goes the other way.
Where things stand
51 products launched this month. Traffic climbing every week. Submissions coming in daily now.
