Before Submitting to YourStory

  • Confirm the site belongs in the Startup Directory category before submitting.
  • Use a real brand email, not a disposable inbox, so confirmation messages can be completed.
  • Prepare a unique 150-300 word description instead of reusing the homepage meta description.
  • Check that the homepage, pricing or contact page, and privacy policy are live before the directory reviews the listing.

Backlynk keeps directory outreach paced and quality-filtered. Directory listings should support entity discovery and topical relevance; they should not be treated as a replacement for useful content, earned mentions, or product quality.

Submit to YourStory With Tracking

Backlynk helps organize submission details, verification steps, email handling, status tracking, and placement proof so each listing can be reviewed after it goes live.
