From ElixirWeekly’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.
What to prepare
The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for newsletters that feature tools.
- Product name and a one-line tagline (about 60 characters)
- A short description (1–2 sentences) and a longer one (a short paragraph)
- Square logo, at least 256×256 px, PNG or SVG
- 2–3 screenshots at a consistent size
- The exact page you want the link to point to
- Pricing model (free, freemium or paid) and a contact email
- A two-sentence pitch written for that newsletter’s readers, not a press release
- One concrete detail an editor can quote: a feature, a number from your own product or a use case
- A short link to the exact page you want readers to land on
- A budget and date range, if you’re considering a sponsored slot
Is ElixirWeekly worth it?
Good for your SEO foundation
ElixirWeekly reviews listings by hand and the listing link we inspected was followed. That combination is what makes a directory link worth having for a new site.
- Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 39 (moderate). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
- No Tranco rank on record, so we can’t say how much traffic it gets.
- A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
- Free to list, so the only cost is your time.
This verdict is worked out from the facts above with fixed rules (link type, review, price, Domain Rating by Ahrefs, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
