Puthusu: A Product Launch Platform That Leaves You With a Backlink, Not Just a Day of Traffic
A launch day gives you one thing reliably: a spike. Visitors show up, some of them convert, and by the following week the spike has flattened back to whatever your baseline was before. The traffic doesn't compound. What you're left holding afterward depends entirely on what the launch platform gave you beyond the day itself.
Puthusu is built around that leftover value: a permanent, dofollow backlink from day one, not just a 24-hour crowd.
What Puthusu does
Puthusu is a product launch platform where makers launch and the community discovers what's new. Submit through a simple flow, and your listing goes live with a permanent dofollow backlink to your site from day one — a piece of SEO value that outlasts the launch-day traffic.
Products are organized across 18+ categories (AI, developer tools, marketing, SaaS, design, and more) and ranked by community upvotes, with daily, weekly, monthly, and all-time leaderboards. Anyone can subscribe to a daily launches digest to keep discovering what's new.
What's broken about the alternative
Most launch platforms are built to maximize the spike: a big front page, a day of votes and comments, then obscurity once the next batch of launches pushes yours down the feed. The traffic is real but temporary, and once it's gone, what's left behind is often just a listing with a nofollow link — no lasting SEO value, nothing compounding after launch week ends.
For an early-stage maker, that's an expensive trade. You get one day of attention in exchange for permanently competing against every other launch for a shrinking slice of that day's visibility — and nothing durable to show for it afterward.
Puthusu treats the backlink as the point, not an afterthought. The permanent dofollow link is there from day one regardless of how the leaderboard shakes out, so the launch leaves you with something that keeps working — search authority — after the community's attention has moved on to the next batch of products.
How it works
Permanent dofollow backlink — Every launch gets a lasting, dofollow link from day one — SEO value that doesn't expire when the launch does.
Community-ranked discovery — Products are upvoted and ranked, with daily, weekly, monthly, and all-time leaderboards so good products keep surfacing beyond their launch day.
18+ categories — AI, developer tools, marketing, SaaS, design, and more, so discovery isn't just a single undifferentiated feed.
Daily launches digest — Subscribers get new products delivered daily, giving launches a longer discovery window than a single day on a front page.
Simple submission — A straightforward submit flow to get a product listed, plus free SEO tools, a launch guide, and brand assets to support the launch itself.
Who this is for
Makers and early-stage startups who want the discovery and community upvotes a launch platform provides, but care just as much about what's left over afterward — a real backlink, not just a day of traffic. Puthusu is early itself — a young platform building its own community of makers and launches — which makes it a place to be visible while the leaderboard is still uncrowded, alongside whatever launch strategy you're already running.
Puthusu is freemium.
