Promotion Plans & Marketing
Organic growth is excellent, but when you are ready to scale aggressively, you need guaranteed visibility. HUBly's Promotion Engine is designed to place your software directly in front of high-intent buyers exactly when they are searching for a solution in your category.
1. Available Promotion Tiers
We offer three distinct tiers of promotion to match your marketing budget and scale. Every plan provides instant activation upon secure payment.
The "Featured" Plan ($49/mo)
Our most popular tier, designed for startups and solo-founders looking for immediate traction.
- Homepage Hero Slot: Your tool enters the rotation on the main HUBly homepage for 30 days.
- Priority Category Ranking: When users filter by your specific category (e.g., "SEO Tools"), your software is pinned to the top of the results.
- Verified Tool Badge: A distinctive blue "Featured" badge is applied to your Tool Card across the entire site, increasing click-through rates.
- Newsletter Spotlight: Inclusion in our weekly community newsletter sent to thousands of professionals.
The "Market Authority" Plan ($149/mo)
Built for established SaaS companies seeking ultimate visibility and long-term SEO benefits.
- Everything in Featured, plus:
- Maximum Priority Status: Top placement in Global Search results for 30 days.
- Do-Follow Backlink (SEO): A high-authority backlink directly from your HUBly profile to boost your domain authority on Google while the promotion is active.
- Site-wide Banner Ads: Your tool will occasionally appear in the Smart Banners located on sidebars and article pages.
- Dedicated Review Article: Our editorial team will write a comprehensive, unbiased breakdown of your tool to drive organic traffic.
Custom / Agency Plan (Contact Sales)
For marketing agencies managing multiple clients or enterprises needing bespoke placements. This unlocks bulk tool submissions, custom ad placements, white-glove onboarding, and a dedicated account manager.
We do not believe in "black box" marketing. Every click and view generated by your Promotion Plan is tracked in real-time on your Maker Dashboard, allowing you to calculate your exact Return on Investment (ROI).
2. Quality Control Standards
To protect our users, money cannot buy a good rating. Purchasing a Promotion Plan guarantees impressions and visibility, but it does not alter your Community Rating or Expert Verdict. If a promoted tool has a 2-star rating from the community, it will be promoted with a 2-star rating. We strictly advise Founders to ensure their software is polished and responsive to user feedback before investing in traffic.
