Questions

How does the Do-Follow backlink work?

Domain Rating (DR) is an industry-standard authority metric developed by Ahrefs measuring the strength of a website's backlink profile on a scale from 0 to 100. A do-follow link from ShowBuild passes authoritative search equity directly to your domain, aiding your organic visibility and search engine rankings.

Do I need to put a badge on my site for Pro or Showcase Plus?

No. Unlike the free Community tier which requires reciprocal badge verification, both Pro Listing ($5) and Showcase Plus ($15) come with a direct, permanent Do-Follow backlink with zero reciprocal badges or links required on your website.

What is the unlock requirement on the Community plan?

To maintain an active, supportive maker ecosystem, free listings are created in a pending state and unlock automatically once you have given 4 upvotes and 1 comment on other published listings from the recent 25 in the new tab. Upgrading to Pro or Showcase Plus bypasses this requirement completely.

What is included in the 1,000-word product blog post?

Showcase Plus includes an in-depth 1,000-word product article published in ShowBuild's guides section that covers your product's problem space, features, use cases, tech stack, and background story, providing strong long-tail SEO visibility and permanent contextual backlinks.

Are there any subscriptions or recurring fees?

Never. Both Pro Listing ($5) and Showcase Plus ($15) are strictly one-time payments. Your listing and backlinks remain active permanently.
