Pricing
Create a free project page first. Then publish an editorial article with one dofollow link — free with a site link to listedpress.com, or $29 with the full SEO, AEO & GEO stack, a Pinterest pin, and auto IndexNow.
How much does a Listed Press backlink cost?
Projects are free. A Listed Press publication costs nothing if your site links to https://listedpress.com — a natural text link is enough; the official badge is optional — or $29 if it does not. Both prices are for one published article with one guaranteed dofollow link, listed on the homepage. The $29 plan is built for exposure: SEO, AEO & GEO editing, a direct-answer block and FAQ schema, Article structured data, listing in llms.txt, a richer Markdown twin, a custom featured image, a Pinterest pin, automatic IndexNow for the page and its Markdown URL, and schedule-again-for-tomorrow up to 3 times. Agencies commonly charge $500 to $1,000 for one editorial backlink.

Five free pages a day
Listed Press publishes five free pages each day. A free page that is ready after those five are filled waits in the free queue and goes live on a later day, in the order it joined. The homepage shows it on the day it goes live.
A $29 page does not enter that queue. It goes live the day it is ready. There is no daily cap on paid pages. The dofollow link, the public URL, and the listing are the same once either plan is live.
Guaranteed dofollow backlink
Every published page, free or $29, contains one link to the product URL you submitted. That anchor is dofollow. The HTML does not use rel="nofollow", rel="sponsored", or rel="ugc". The link text is a phrase that already appears in the article, and it is the only URL in the body.
The guarantee is the live page. After publish, open the URL and inspect the anchor. That is the record. If the link were ever changed, the change would be a correction on that same URL, not a private note.
Guaranteed describes the link we publish. It does not describe what a search engine will do with it. The domain rating of this site is 0. Listed Press does not promise a ranking, a traffic number, or a movement in that rating. Search systems make that decision on their own.
SEO, AEO & GEO — why $29 wins exposure
This stack is on the $29 plan only. The free page is still an editorial article with the guaranteed dofollow link. It is edited for clarity and for that single link. It does not get the search, answer-engine, or agent-surface pass described here.
SEO means the title, summary, headings, and dofollow link are structured so a crawler can tell what the product is. AEO means the page is built for answer engines: a direct-answer opening, FAQ schema, speakable selectors, and a Markdown twin. GEO means the opening states what the product is, who it is for, and where the link goes, in sentences a generative engine can quote.
Paid pages also ship Article and SoftwareApplication schema, appear in llms.txt, get a richer cite-ready Markdown twin and RSS entry, a custom featured image for social and Pinterest, a published Pinterest pin, automatic IndexNow for the HTML and Markdown URLs, and up to three schedule-again-for-tomorrow relaunches from the dashboard.
The optimization is editing and markup. It is not a promise that Google, ChatGPT, Perplexity, or any other system will rank or cite the page. The thing you can check is the live article and its structured surfaces.
Published Pinterest pin
This is on the $29 plan only. When that article goes live, Listed Press sends the title, summary, and publication URL to post a pin on the Listed Press Pinterest board. One paid page, one pin. You get an email when the pin is live.
The pin is a second public place that points at the article. People who find the pin land on the page, and the page is where the dofollow backlink lives. The pin does not replace that link, and it is not a second dofollow from Pinterest to your product. Pinterest decides how its own links are treated. The backlink you are buying is the anchor inside the Listed Press article.
The free plan does not include a pin. If a $29 article is later taken down, the pin is removed or updated with it.
IndexNow submission
This is on the $29 plan only. After the page is live, open the publication Actions menu in your dashboard and choose Submit to IndexNow. That pings participating search engines with the public URL so they can learn about the page sooner.
When IndexNow accepts the request, you get a confirmation email. IndexNow is a notification, not a ranking promise. The free plan does not include this submission.
Schedule again for tomorrow
This is on the $29 plan only. From the dashboard Actions menu, schedule a live paid publication for extra homepage exposure tomorrow. The article stays public. A Relaunch row appears on the homepage feed and links to the same article — no new Pinterest pin or IndexNow. Each paid page gets three uses. Free publications can upgrade to $29 in the dashboard to unlock it.
The backlink, on the free plan
The free page goes live when your site links to Listed Press (listedpress.com). The official badge below is optional — any clear link is enough. A footer or the product page is a normal place for it. Leave it up while the Listed Press page is live. The $29 page does not ask for it.
<a href="https://listedpress.com"><img src="https://listedpress.com/listedpress-badge.svg" width="120" height="44" alt="Published on Listed Press" /></a>
Why this is not a directory listing
A directory listing is a logo, a name, and a link in a catalog. The page has nothing to read, so the link has no sentence around it, and an answer engine has nothing to quote. A Listed Press page is an article. The homepage is the index of those articles.
The longer comparison is on editorial backlinks.
Why this is not a $500 agency placement
An SEO agency commonly quotes $500 to $1,000 for one editorial backlink. The page usually lives on a site you do not operate, and the URL can be hard to inspect. Listed Press is the publisher. The article, the dofollow link, and, on the $29 plan, the Pinterest pin are all public on the day the page goes live.
You are paying for that page, not for a ranking report. Send the product from the submit page.
Questions
What is guaranteed on a Listed Press backlink?
The live page on listedpress.com contains one dofollow link to the product URL you submitted. The anchor does not use rel nofollow, rel sponsored, or rel ugc. Open the published URL and inspect the link. That is the guarantee. The domain rating of this site is 0. It does not promise a Google ranking, a traffic number, or a change in that rating.
What does SEO, AEO, and GEO optimized mean on the $29 plan?
SEO means the title, summary, headings, and dofollow link are edited so a search engine can tell what the product is. AEO means the page is structured for answer engines: a direct-answer opening, FAQ schema, speakable selectors, and a Markdown twin. GEO means the opening states what the product is, who it is for, and where the link goes, in sentences a generative engine can quote. Paid pages also get Article and SoftwareApplication schema, an llms.txt listing, auto IndexNow, and a custom featured image. The free page is still edited for clarity and the single link, without that pass.
What is the Pinterest pin?
On the $29 plan, Listed Press publishes one Pinterest pin about the article at 10:00 UTC on the launch day (two hours after the 08:00 UTC go-live). The pin uses the article title and summary, links to the live publication URL, and appears on https://in.pinterest.com/praneetbrar/listedpress/. The pin points at the article. The dofollow backlink is the link inside the article. You get an email when the pin is live. The free plan does not include a pin.
What is IndexNow on the $29 plan?
IndexNow lets participating search engines know when a URL is new or updated. Paid pages are submitted automatically when they go live (HTML and Markdown), and you can re-submit from the dashboard Actions menu. A successful submission emails you a confirmation. IndexNow is a ping, not a ranking guarantee. The free plan does not include it.
What is Schedule again for tomorrow?
On the $29 plan you can give a live publication extra homepage exposure up to three times from the dashboard. The article stays live. A separate Relaunch appearance is scheduled for tomorrow’s 08:00 UTC homepage feed and links to the same article. It does not re-run Pinterest or IndexNow. Free publications can upgrade to $29 in the dashboard to unlock it.
What does the free plan require?
Your site links to https://listedpress.com — a natural text link is enough; the official badge image is optional — and that link stays up while the page is live. You still get the editorial page and the guaranteed dofollow link. Five free pages go live each day. If that day's five are already scheduled, the page waits in the free queue. You do not get the SEO/AEO/GEO pass, FAQ schema, llms.txt listing, custom featured image, Pinterest pin, IndexNow, or relaunches.
Why is this $29 when agencies charge $500 to $1,000?
Agencies often charge $500 to $1,000 for one editorial backlink on a site you do not run. Listed Press is the site. The page is published here, listed in public, and priced at $29 with the full optimization and distribution pass, or free when your site links back to listedpress.com.
Why do free pages wait?
Listed Press publishes five free pages each day. A free page that is ready after those five are filled waits in the queue and goes live on a later day, in the order it joined. A $29 page does not enter that queue. It publishes the day it is ready, and there is no daily cap on paid pages.
