218 free startup directories
Of the 269 startup directories we track, 218 accept a free submission. 201 are free with no strings; the other 17 are free only if you add a backlink or their badge to your site (marked "free with backlink" below). A note of caution: a free listing decays fast, so roughly a third of any stale "free directories" list is no longer free. The list below is hand-checked, with the requirement and catch called out for each.
