1. Great list. Took me 2 hours. I opened all the links in tabs at once and copy/pasted my pitch to all of them.

   • Great Idea Frank. You really streamlined things. My only suggestion is to make sure you personalize the submission by inserting the blog or editor name. Studies have shown that response rates increase when you personalize the email.

2. One more, maybe (I can’t figure out how to submit to it) http://www.appappeal.com/

   • Thanks Cooper. I can’t seem to find out where to submit to app appeal either.

3. Rishi,

   Thank you for including us in your list.

   Best,

   • My pleasure.

8. Rishi,

   Nice list.
   Went through all of them. Two sites are not operating anymore: All Things Web2 an Cloudomatic

   Also, you may want to add http://www.getapp.com/ to your list. We only deal with apps out of Beta and targeted at businesses. We are are very focused but deliver results!
   Thanks

   • Thank you Christopher! I updated the list and added your directory as well.

     How does your site work? People list their app and you get affiliate commissions?

9. Thanks for adding us. GetApp.com is a vertical marketplace for web-based business applications only. There is a small listing fee which is one way for us to qualify relevant applications.

    • David – I’m glad you found it useful!

      I checked out your website: http://www.looplr.com. Anyone that reads this comment please checkout David’s awesome website – it is really cool!

      If you want to maximize the number of conversions you get from the initial traffic boost I strongly recommend the following:

      #1 Focus on one call-to-action. Currently you have five (Sign in with Twitter/Facebook/etc and Download on the App Store). What is the most important thing you want the customer to do? Login with Facebook or Download your app? I would pick one and take the rest out.

      See my blog post on Instagram:
      https://www.gettingmoreawesome.com/2012/06/05/instagram-growth-hack/

      #2 Your service looks awesome but I don’t see an irresistible offer in the headline. Currently it is “Get in the Loop! Shoot, Share, and Watch Video…” Since you are a new web app “Get in the Loop and watching videos from the loop community doesn’t really make much sense to me – since I don’t know anyone that is currently on looplr. Something new that your service does that not many people do is “Shoot Video and Share It With Your Friends, Download the app now!” – I would focus on that.

      Good luck with the app – I’m sure it will be extremely successful with a little more clarity and focus.

      • Hi Rishi,
        Thanks for your feedback, constructive advice is always welcome, yes i agree with you. we should lazer focus on the core benefit to the user and how he will perceive the value of the product as it relates to him, thanks for giving me a nudge 🙂

20. Hi Rishi,

    Thanks for this awesome list! We spent a lot of money on Google Adwords but we have learned the hard way the value of this kind of SEO.

21. Rishi – Thank you for putting this list together. Great info! Some of the sites do charge small fees but I can understand considering the large number of submissions they get.
