About SiteDuel

Good websites should not need a huge audience to get noticed.

Put your site on the leaderboard for free. If you want to test it head-to-head, you can use one free duel entry each day. After the three daily free entries are used, additional entries cost $19 once. Real people vote. The better pitch wins.

You can pay to enter. You cannot pay to win.

About the directories

The SiteDuel directory list is a hand-verified collection of places where independent founders can submit and share their products. Each entry includes its category, pricing, link type, domain rating, and traffic signals so you can quickly choose the right launch channels.

Browse by focus, pricing, or minimum domain rating, then open any directory to learn more. Sign in to mark a directory Done or Skip; your progress is saved to your account, and clicking the same status again removes it.

How it started

I kept seeing useful products get buried while the same familiar names stayed at the top. For a solo founder, getting the first few real visitors can be harder than building the thing itself.

So I made SiteDuel: a place where you can list what you built for free, or put it into a friendly head-to-head. No bidding for rank. No mystery score. Just your site, another site, and a public vote.

How a duel works

More than a vote

Every product has a story behind it. On each product page, people can ask a thoughtful question, share feedback, like a helpful comment, or reply to keep the conversation going.

Founders can answer in the same thread, so a leaderboard visit can turn into a real conversation. Comments are plain text, tied to real accounts, and shaped by the same good-faith spirit as the duels.

What stays free

Built for makers

I am building SiteDuel for people who ship before everything is perfect and figure things out in public. If that sounds like you, I hope this place helps a few more people find your work.

What category is SiteDuel?

SiteDuel is a product launch and startup discovery platform for independent founders. It combines a public product leaderboard, time-boxed website duels, community voting, founder discussions, launch directories, and optional showcase placements.

It is different from a static startup directory because founders can test positioning through a live community competition. It is different from a paid advertising network because ranking is not sold: members decide duel results, and paid entries do not guarantee votes, clicks, customers, or sales.

Who should use SiteDuel?

SiteDuel is built for solo founders, indie hackers, SaaS teams, AI tool makers, developers shipping side projects, and early-stage startups that need first visitors and honest feedback.

Use the free listing to get discovered, the directory tracker to plan external submissions, and a duel when you want a public 24-hour test of your product pitch. Founders get one free duel entry each day; additional entries cost $19 one time.
