About edshelf
A very small niche directory serving parents and educators, looking for tools for their kids. They live of the partnerships with tools they feature. Their traffic is very low by Blastra standards, but given the high domain rating and a niche specialization, we included them into our database. Dedicated EdTech directories are hard to find! An registered educator can list a tool or the maker. The issue is there's no interface for the makers to submit and when Blastra tried contact the directory, the email bounced.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Can Blastra submit my product to edshelf?
- No, not yet. edshelf is paid-only — there's no free listing tier — and Blastra doesn't currently work with paid-only directories where the listing fee comes on top of our service fee. We may add paid-only directories in the future as we evaluate which ones genuinely deliver return for customers.
- Is edshelf free?
- No. edshelf requires a paid plan to be on the platform — there is no free option, even for a basic profile. Pricing varies by tier and is set by edshelf; we don't have visibility into your specific quote until you contact them. If budget matters, this is worth knowing upfront.
- Should a Education, Learning, and EdTech company list on edshelf?
- Yes — edshelf's audience is built around Education, Learning, and EdTech, which makes it a strong fit for companies in that space. Niche directories typically outperform general ones for category-specific buyers because the audience comes pre-qualified by the platform itself. Worth being on if your category aligns with what edshelf covers.
- Does edshelf have reviews?
- No. edshelf either doesn't host reviews at all or doesn't weight them in how listings get surfaced — it works on a different model, like editorial curation, traffic, or paid tiers. The value of being on edshelf doesn't depend on running a review collection campaign for this listing.
- Does edshelf accept beta or waitlist products?
- No — edshelf only accepts products that are publicly available. Beta and waitlist-stage products are rejected because the reviewers want to see something they can actually try before approving the listing. Wait until you've moved out of private beta and the product is purchasable before submitting.
- What's the approval time for edshelf?
- Approval time on edshelf varies, but most submissions go live within 3-7 days based on what we've seen. The window depends on directory queue depth and how clean the submission is — incomplete forms, missing assets, or non-English websites all push the timeline toward the longer end of the range.
