Listing distribution

Low effort, compounding, and consistently under-done. Also easy to do in a way that wastes weeks.

Choosing where to list

Judge each by whether real buyers use it, not by domain authority. The directories worth the time

are the ones your buyers already consult during evaluation.

  • Category review sites — highest value where they exist for your category. Buyers read these

during active evaluation.

  • Curated niche directories — moderate traffic, good qualification, usually a real editorial

bar.

  • Launch platforms — a spike, not a channel. Worth doing once, with preparation.
  • Bulk submission lists — mostly worthless, and the low-quality end carries real risk. Skip

them.

Preparing once, reusing everywhere

Assemble a kit before submitting anywhere: descriptions at several lengths, logo and screenshots at

the common sizes, category selections, feature list, pricing summary, and the founder or company

details these forms always want. Submissions then take minutes instead of an afternoon each.

Keep the positioning identical across listings. Inconsistent descriptions across directories are

both a brand problem and a signal problem.

Review platforms

The listings that most influence buyers. Claim the profile, complete it fully, and keep it current —

a stale listing with old pricing costs deals.

Ask for reviews from customers at a success moment, never with an incentive tied to sentiment.

Respond to every negative review specifically and without defensiveness; prospects read the

responses more carefully than the reviews.

Comparison and alternative pages

Pages targeting "X versus Y" and "alternatives to X" capture buyers already in evaluation, which is

the highest-intent traffic available.

Write them honestly. Name where the competitor is genuinely better — a comparison that finds you

superior on every axis is not believed, and buyers checking it against their own experience will

discount the whole page. Keep them current; a comparison against a competitor's two-year-old feature

set is worse than nothing.

Maintaining

Set a periodic sweep: listings drift out of date, and an aggregator showing your old pricing will

outrank your own page for some queries.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take cbrock84/listing-distribution from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
