How to submit to RubyFlow
Open the RubyFlow submission page
This is the page makers use to add a product.
Create an account
RubyFlow asks you to sign up before you can submit.
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.
Fill in the form carefully
Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse RubyFlow (Ruby and Rails developers), not for search engines.
Wait, then check
We couldn’t confirm how listings are reviewed. Once yours is live, check the details and that the link points to the right page.
Tips for RubyFlow
- Sign in with GitHub to post; the form accepts basic HTML or Markdown.
- Write a short paragraph explaining what your library or post does, since posts appear as mini write-ups rather than bare links.
- Links are nofollow, so the value is in reaching Ruby developers, not SEO.
From RubyFlow’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 RubyFlow worth it?
Good for discovery, not link equity
Links from RubyFlow listings carry rel="nofollow", so they pass little or no ranking value. Submit if its audience matches yours: the value is visitors and being findable where people browse.
- Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 49 (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.
- 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.
