An AI optimized directory to showcase your substack - bloghub.app
Why does this exist?
I have been in the blogging and publishing space for over 6 years. The hardest part was never the writing -- it was getting seen. As a new publisher you have almost no visibility, and every avenue to fix that was either paid or useless.

Bloghub is Product Hunt for blogs. Just like Product Hunt became the default place to launch a SaaS product, Bloghub is where you launch and grow a publication.
What does it do?
It is in beta but already gives you three things most publishers are paying for elsewhere:
Free backlinks — real SEO value, no strings attached. We are following the best practices for SEO, giving you an indexed page + 6 six backlinks for your publication automatically.
Community ranking — your readers upvote your publication, boosting your visibility across the platform. You will stay on top as long as you are the top ranked
AI search optimization — a structured markdown page built for LLMs, not just Google. As AI search evolves, we update your visibility automatically. Also making the whole site more digestable for LLM search engines.
Launch Visibility — You are automatically placed on the landing page, the day you launch, regardless of being a small creator you get visibility.
Email Marketing — We are building an email pipeline within bloghub which will send emails about launches, top ranked posts and other insights to everyone who signs up.
All of these are free, right now bloghub has no paid tier. Everyone gets the same tools for free. It takes only 2 mins to set up your publication page which you can do here:

What is coming next?
Bloghub is built in public and shaped by its users. Here are some directions we are exploring (these aren’t confirmed but we are very likely to build on these ideas) :
Submit new posts — right now you can add your publication with up to 5 post links. But great publications ship content daily, so we are building a way to submit new posts on an ongoing basis and keep your page fresh.
Exclusive content — we are exploring a feed where users post exclusive content that everyone can read on Bloghub, turning it into more of a social media platform.
Find readers — often as a new publication you have great content but no way to meet your audience. Depending on a few factors, we will introduce non-intrusive, non-spammy ways of helping you find readers.
Partnerships and writers — similar to finding readers, many publications need good writers or publishing partners that can help them write better or get more cross-visibility.
AI tools for publications — I am first and foremost a AI Engineer/Consultant. Have made many projects, which includes blog2video.app. In the future me & my team will add more AI tools into the system that can help writers.
This it for now, please do visit https://bloghub.app - submit your publication and we will take care of the rest.
Side note: Another marketing tool that you have access to is blog2video.app which converts any written content into a video, giving you more content you can share for higher visibility.
Thank you for reading.
