Directory submissions done for you, $6.6K in 30 days: manual proof

A service that finds relevant directories, creates product listings, submits them manually, and supplies evidence of each published placement. Its $6.6K in the last 30 days is verified through the payment provider's API by TrustMRR (Creem), as of September 30, 2026.

The service selects up to 100 best-fit directories from 200+ vetted sites, with placements up to DR 98.

Where customers come from

The visible entry points are a free list of 50 directories with free submissions, guides about backlink strategy, directory submission, and SEO citation building, and email support before and after the service.

What stands out

Published placements receive a live link, while directories still reviewing receive screenshot proof: “You get the live link for each published listing, and screenshot proof for directories that are still reviewing.” The site also says every plan includes a complete submission report.

Where it sits in the data

Effortless Backlinks's $6.6K in the last 30 days is higher than 91% of the 5,602 projects with payment-verified revenue in our dataset; the median across them is $150. Within the “Marketing” category (897 projects) it is higher than 89% (category median $198). Snapshot: 2026-09-02 to 2026-09-30. The dataset only covers founders who chose to publish their numbers, so it leans toward businesses that work; use it for scale, not as an average.

Currency

All figures are in US dollars as published. A rough yuan or euro conversion is not applied here because prices, taxes and acquisition costs differ by country.

Could you build something like this?

In my view, this is easy to start as a focused service, but demand depends on selling to buyers who value directory visibility enough to delegate submissions and accept the time needed to complete them. Distribution would need a clear answer: search-driven content, direct outreach, partnerships, or another channel that reaches the right businesses.

The harder work is maintaining a relevant directory list, judging fit, writing accurate listings, handling rejected or delayed submissions, and supporting customers through review. Competition, changing directory requirements, and search-engine policies can make a standardized process harder to maintain.

Verdict: Needs real work.

One thing to take from it

The clearest product choice is the evidence package. Manual submission plus a live link, screenshot, or complete report turns directory outreach into a defined deliverable instead of leaving the buyer to verify what happened.
