Frequently Asked Questions
- Does Blastra support AlternativeTo?
- Yes. Blastra submits to AlternativeTo on your behalf as part of the standard service. We handle account setup, write the listing copy, manage approval correspondence with the platform, and keep the listing current as your product evolves. AlternativeTo is part of every Blastra customer's directory mix when it's relevant to their category.
- Is AlternativeTo free to list on?
- Free listings are available on AlternativeTo, with optional paid upgrades on top. The upgrades exist to flesh out a more robust profile, which helps with LLM visibility and matters most when AlternativeTo is one of the directories you want to prioritize for review collection. Most companies start free and only revisit upgrades once they see results from being there.
- Are reviews part of how AlternativeTo works?
- No, reviews aren't a meaningful part of AlternativeTo. The platform's value isn't built on review volume, so a review collection campaign isn't required to benefit from a listing here. If you have a review strategy already, focus that energy on directories where reviews actually drive ranking or visibility.
- Can I list a pre-launch product on AlternativeTo?
- No. AlternativeTo requires the product to be in general access — beta-only or waitlist-only products won't be approved. The reviewers want a working, purchasable product they can verify before publishing the listing. If you're still in private beta, hold off on submitting to AlternativeTo until you go publicly available.
- How long does it take to get listed on AlternativeTo?
- It depends on AlternativeTo's queue and how complete the submission is, but in our experience most listings on AlternativeTo get approved within 7-14 days. If your submission is missing fields or the website needs translation work, expect the longer end of that range or some back-and-forth before approval.
