Frequently Asked Questions
- Does Blastra support SourceForge?
- Yes. Blastra submits to SourceForge 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. SourceForge is part of every Blastra customer's directory mix when it's relevant to their category.
- Is SourceForge free to list on?
- Free listings are available on SourceForge, 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 SourceForge 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 required on SourceForge?
- No — you don't need reviews to get listed on SourceForge. The platform supports reviews and they're worth collecting based on what's happening in your category, but they're not a prerequisite for the listing itself. Most companies submit first and then build a review strategy as the listing matures.
- Can I list a pre-launch product on SourceForge?
- Yes. SourceForge accepts pre-launch products as long as you have a working website, including beta and waitlist stages. The reviewers want to see that the product exists and the website explains what it does, but they don't require general availability or paying customers to approve the listing.
- How long does it take to get listed on SourceForge?
- It depends on SourceForge's queue and how complete the submission is, but in our experience most listings on SourceForge get approved within 3-7 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.
- Can I list my software on SourceForge?
- Yes — SourceForge accepts product listings, including SaaS, software, AI tools, and hardware. Service businesses, agencies, and consultancies won't be approved or won't fit the audience even if they get through. If you sell services, look at directories with explicit Services focus instead, like Clutch or GoodFirms.
