Hey Fazier 👋 I built FireLaunch because every launch board I tried felt the same: the free tier was a teaser, your listing got buried in a one-line feed slot, and the affiliate program paid 20% if it existed at all. So I rebuilt it the way I'd want it: - Free tier gets a real dedicated launch page with dofollow backlinks, not a directory entry - The Spark heat mechanic rewards real engagement (votes, clicks, dwell time) over the full launch week, not just the first 6 hours - Hit 250 Spark in week one and you join The Forge, a permanent hall of fame on the homepage that keeps driving traffic forever - Affiliates earn 50% lifetime commission, auto-paid via Stripe Connect The queue is human-reviewed. No AI-spam, no bot launches. One-time pricing on every paid tier, no subscriptions. Founder seats are capped at 100 for life. Would love your honest feedback. If you list, ping me. I read every submission personally.

I like the focus on giving makers a dedicated page and long-term visibility. The combination of backlinks, community engagement, and a simple launch process could be especially valuable for solo founders looking to get their first users and feedback.
The Spark-over-launch-spike idea is the actually interesting bit here. Most boards reward one coordinated day and then your page quietly rots, so rewarding dwell time and ongoing clicks is a more honest signal. The obvious risk is gaming: what stops someone farming dwell time or running a Discord raid in week one to clear 250? If that part is handled, "stays in The Forge forever" becomes a genuinely strong hook.
