Do paid listings rank higher on the Community board?

No. The Community leaderboard shows only votes. Paid listings appear separately on the Billboard, clearly labelled. Money does not affect community rankings.

When are Launch of the Week badges awarded?

After each week ends (Sunday UTC), the top 3 by votes receive badges automatically. Winners are notified by email.

Where does the Domain Rating data come from?

Ahrefs provides the ratings. We show the current rating, whether it has moved up or down, and the dates we checked it and when it changed.

How are launches ranked in orbit?

Community votes shape our leaderboards. Paid rankings are labelled clearly. Launch of the Week badges go to top voters' choices.

Voting sets the orbit

Our Community leaderboard is governed entirely by votes. The launches that attract the most votes from visitors climb highest in the ring. Money plays no part in this ranking—your votes are the gravity that matters.

Paid rankings sit apart

The Billboard leaderboard is different. Launches here are ranked by money contributed, with a minimum of $5. Each paid listing is clearly marked so you can see which rankings are earned by the community and which are purchased. We keep the two orbits separate.

Domain Rating adds dimension

Our Domain Rating leaderboard pulls from Ahrefs and shows each listing's current rating. You'll see the trend too—whether the rating is moving up, holding steady or shifting down. We record both when we checked it and when it last changed, so you can track the motion over time.

Launch of the Week

Each calendar week (Monday to Sunday, UTC), the top 3 launches by community votes receive a Launch of the Week badge. These are awarded automatically once the week closes. Winners receive an email notification.
