Do I need the badge to get published?

Yes, free listings require our badge to appear on your website. We check every 7 days. Once our crawler finds it, your listing publishes. If it disappears, your listing goes back to waiting status until you restore it.

Will my badge link help my SEO?

That depends on your site's Domain Rating (Ahrefs). If it reaches 20 and passes our spam checks, your link becomes dofollow. Otherwise it stays nofollow. Paid listings get dofollow links on the listing page.

What are the award badges?

Launch of the Week, Featured, Launched and Verified badges appear automatically on your listing when earned through community votes and activity. You don't need to do anything—they chart themselves.

Setting your course with the badge

Every listing can display our badge on your own website. Head to your listing's badge page to choose your design—pick from different shapes, light or dark variants, and sizes that suit your site. Copy the HTML snippet and paste it where you want visitors to see it. The badge links directly back to your listing page here on Navero Launch.

The badge is your chart marker

Free listings need this badge to set sail. We only publish your listing once our crawler spots a live link to your listing page on your website. Any badge design works—we check automatically every 7 days to make sure it's still there. If the badge vanishes, your listing returns to "waiting for badge" status and we'll email you the news. Put the badge back and your listing republishes automatically, no manual action needed.

Understanding link follow status

Your badge link begins as nofollow. Our system decides its status in real time: it becomes dofollow if your site's Domain Rating (Ahrefs) reaches 20 or higher and passes our spam checks. Otherwise it remains nofollow. Paid launches receive a dofollow link to your website on the listing page itself; free listings get a nofollow link.

Award badges chart themselves

Launch of the Week winners, Featured, Launched and Verified badges appear on your listing automatically when you earn them—no setup required.

Navigate to your listing page to find your badge settings and chart your next move.
