For makers listed on launch directories
Add it once.
Your badges update themselves.
Stop copying badge code from every launch directory into your footer. Add TryBadgey to your site once, then pick, reorder and change your “Featured on” badges from one dashboard. Each badge is a real link that directories can verify.
Free for 1 site · No card needed · WordPress, PHP, Next.js & more
Sound familiar?
Launching is fun.
Pasting badge code is not.
Every directory you launch on hands you another snippet. Here's what that turns into after a few launches.
<!-- TryBadgey badge wall: added once -->
That's it. Forever.
Copy, paste, repeat ×30
Every new directory means another snippet to copy into your footer, again.
Edit code for every launch
Open theme files, redeploy, or wait for your developer, just to add one badge.
A messy footer
Badges in five different sizes, light ones on dark pages, rows that break on phones.
Badges break quietly
Directories change images or shut down. You notice the broken icon months later.
Heavy images slow your page
Some badge images are over 2,000 px wide for something shown 36 px tall.
No idea what works
Which directory actually sends you visitors? You can't tell.
How it works
Three steps. Then never again.
Set it up in about two minutes. After that, everything happens in your TryBadgey dashboard.

Real links directories can verify
Each badge is in your page as a real link, exactly as the directory gives it, so directory checks and Google find it. We never wrap or redirect your links.

FAQ
Good questions.
What is TryBadgey?
TryBadgey shows all your launch directory badges ("Featured on" badges) on your website and lets you manage them from one dashboard. You add our code to your site once; every badge you add, remove or reorder later shows up on your site by itself, as a real link that directories and search engines can see.
Do I ever need to touch my code again?
No. You add the TryBadgey code once. After that you add, remove and reorder badges in your dashboard, and your site follows within about 2 minutes.
Can directories verify my badge?
Yes. TryBadgey puts each badge into your page as a real link, exactly as the directory gives it, so a directory's "verify badge" check finds it, and so does Google.
How do I know a directory published my listing?
Pro includes a Listing tracker. It opens your listing page on each directory, shows whether it is live and links to your website, re-checks every week and alerts you if a link goes missing.
Which websites does it work on?
Sites built on WordPress, PHP (Laravel, CodeIgniter, Joomla and more), Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, Node.js, Python (Django, Flask) and Ruby on Rails. The install guide has ready-made code for each. Site builders such as Webflow, Wix, Shopify and Framer, and browser-only React, Vue or Angular apps, are not supported yet.
Does TryBadgey change my badge links?
No. Each badge links exactly the way the directory gives it, including its own rel attributes. We never wrap, redirect or shorten your links.
A directory I'm listed on isn't in your list. Now what?
Use "Add your own badge": paste the badge code the directory gave you and it joins your wall, just for your site.
Will it slow my site down?
No. Your site keeps a copy of your badges for 2 minutes, so pages load as fast as before, and big badge images are resized to keep your page light.
Is it really free?
Yes: one site with up to 10 badges, free forever. Pro adds more sites, unlimited badges, your own text, no credit line, directory traffic stats and the Listing tracker.
What is the Lifetime plan?
Pay $299 once and keep everything in Pro for good: up to 25 sites, every feature we add later, and priority support. No yearly bill, ever.
What happens if I cancel Pro?
You keep Pro until the end of the period you paid for, then move to Free. Nothing is deleted: extra sites pause and extra badges hide until you upgrade again.
Your next launch badge should take one click, not a deploy.
Set up TryBadgey in two minutes. Free for your first site.
