Submit to Siteinspire
A hand-picked gallery of well-designed websites, more than 8,000 of them, sorted by style, type and subject and browsed mainly by designers, developers and agencies. Any registered member can submit a site, but a single curator chooses what goes in on visual quality, and with many submissions arriving every day being picked is far from certain. A featured site gets its own page with a link to the live site and credits for the people who designed and built it.

Siteinspire at a glance
- Pricing
- Free
- No submission fee is mentioned, and the about page says none of the featured sites are sponsored entries. Weekly and monthly sponsorships are sold separately as advertising; no prices are shown.
- Link type
- Dofollow
- Two website pages inspected in a rendered browser (a plain fetch is stopped by a bot check): the link to the featured site has rel="noopener noreferrer" and no nofollow, e.g. https://www.siteinspire.com/website/13684-kolfest and https://www.siteinspire.com/website/13657-chambres-damis. The submission form sits behind sign-in, so its fields and any charge on it could not be seen (checked 2026-11-12) What a dofollow link is

How to submit to Siteinspire
Open the Siteinspire submission page
This is the page makers use to add a product.
Create an account
Siteinspire 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 Siteinspire (Designers, developers and agencies collecting web design references, and clients looking for studios in the Profiles directory), not for search engines.
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 Siteinspire
- Register as a member first: the submission form lives in the account area and sends you to sign-in if you are not logged in.
- Selection comes down to one person's eye. The about page says Daniel Howells chooses the sites for creativity and visual quality with no fixed criteria, so submit only when the design itself is the strong point.
- Sponsorship does not buy a gallery entry: the site states that no featured site is a sponsored one, and sponsor slots are a separate ad product.
- If your site gets in, add credits for whoever designed and built it; credited studios and freelancers show up in the Profiles directory.
From Siteinspire’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.
What to prepare
The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for design 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
- High-resolution screenshots or preview images (no blurry crops)
- A short loop or video if your product has motion
- Links to a Figma community file, Dribbble or Behance page if relevant
- Licence terms if you sell assets or templates
Is Siteinspire worth it?
Good for your SEO foundation
Siteinspire 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: 76 (very strong). 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.
