LaunchPanda is all about improving your Domain Rating through directory launches, and making those launches as easy as possible. So we're proud to announce our partnership with VerifiedDR.

Quick refresher first: Domain Rating (DR) is a score from 0 to 100 that reflects how strong your website's backlink profile is. The more quality sites linking to you, the higher your DR, and the better you tend to rank. If you want the full breakdown, read What is Domain Rating?.

What is VerifiedDR?

VerifiedDR is the authority network built around that number. It tracks your real DR (not the inflated kind), helps founders earn stronger backlinks, and proves what actually moved your rankings. They even have a stricter metric called TrueDR that layers in trust, traffic, domain age, and spam signals, so the score reflects genuine authority instead of a padded backlink count.

Live DR tracking, everywhere in LaunchPanda

If you've been using LaunchPanda lately, you may have noticed DR trackers showing up all over the app. On the browse page, on your account, and on your individual startup profiles.

Here's the best part: thanks to the partnership, these numbers now refresh twice a week. So you can actually watch your Domain Rating climb over time instead of guessing.

An instant, high-quality backlink

The partnership also unlocks automated submission of your tool to VerifiedDR. No more manual submitting. Every tool gets listed automatically, earning you an instant high-quality backlink (VerifiedDR sits at 55 DR at the time of writing). It's a head start on your DR before you've even launched anywhere else.

Want that head start on autopilot? Auto Launch submits your tool to every directory for you, so your DR starts climbing while you build.
