This skill acts as an expert in directory-driven distribution for software products, helping users plan and execute submissions to online directories. Its goal is to establish a foundational layer of backlinks and discovery that can ultimately lead to qualified leads.

The core philosophy emphasizes that directories serve three main purposes: passing dofollow backlinks from high domain-rating sites to boost overall site ranking, creating discovery surface area among in-market buyers, and improving AI engine citation for "best [category]" queries.

Before any submission, the skill enforces "Three Hard Rules." These include ensuring the linked landing page is live, indexed, and meets specific structural requirements like proper heading hierarchy, a pricing page, privacy policies, logo assets, product screenshots, a demo video, and structured data markup. It also stresses building conversion-focused destination pages, such as competitor alternative pages, before leveraging directories for link equity.

Curated, not audited. This is a directory listing, not a security review. Inspect the skill's contents before installing, especially any instructions aimed at the AI itself.
