How to submit to GitHub Marketplace

  1. Open the GitHub Marketplace submission page

    This is the page makers use to add a product.

  2. Create an account

    GitHub Marketplace asks you to sign up before you can submit.

  3. Have your assets ready

    Name, tagline, description, logo and screenshots. The checklist below covers what to prepare so you can fill the form in one go.

  4. Fill in the form carefully

    Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse GitHub Marketplace (Developers and engineering teams extending GitHub workflows), not for search engines.

  5. Wait for review

    A person reviews submissions, so it can take a while. Once it’s live, check the link on your listing points to the right page.

Tips for GitHub Marketplace

  • Review GitHub's listing requirements and security best practices before drafting a listing
  • Only organization-owned apps can sell, and paid plans require publisher verification
  • Use the listing metrics and transactions views to track performance after launch

From GitHub Marketplace’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.

What to prepare

The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for developer tool directories.

  • 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
  • Links to your docs and a quick-start or install command
  • Your GitHub or GitLab repo, if public
  • Supported languages, frameworks and platforms
  • Pricing for the API or hosted tier, including free limits

Is GitHub Marketplace worth it?

Good for your SEO foundation

GitHub Marketplace 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.

  • Tranco rank #29: one of the ~10,000 most visited sites on the web.
  • 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, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
