Community
How leaderboards and Launch of the Week work
Three ranking systems catalogue the launches on Debut Directory: votes, paid position and domain authority. The community's top entries earn weekly badges.
How voting works in the Directory
Vote on launches you find by signing in. Your vote counts fairly, and paid placement never changes vote tallies.
