Overview

The Free links directory is a hand-curated catalog of reputable, high-authority websites — directories, communities, and listing sites — where you can submit your site for free to earn backlinks. It’s the simplest, lowest-cost way to start building domain authority. Find it under Collaboration → Free links (app.trysight.ai/collaboration?tab=free-links).
Free links is the successor to the old Backlinks page. The old /backlinks URL now redirects here.
This directory is separate from the Collaboration network: there are no AI credits, no escrow, and no AI drafting involved. You submit to each site yourself, on your own time.

​
Browsing the directory

Each entry shows:
  • Site name and URL
  • Domain Rating (DR) — the site’s authority, powered by Ahrefs (higher is stronger)
  • Link type — DOFOLLOW (passes authority) or NOFOLLOW (still valuable for referral traffic and discovery)
  • Category/type — directory, community, profile, etc.
Use the controls at the top to:
  • Search by name
  • Filter by type, and toggle Dofollow only
  • Sort by DR, name, or type
  • Export CSV to work through the list in a spreadsheet
Click View details on any row to open submission guidance for that site.

​
How to use it

1

Pick a site

Start with the highest-DR dofollow sites that fit your niche. A handful of strong, relevant links beats dozens of low-quality ones.
2

Sign up & submit

Open the site, create an account if needed, and submit your site following the details in the View details panel.
3

Earn authority

As your submissions go live, you accumulate backlinks that help build your domain authority over time.

​
Dofollow vs. nofollow

  • Dofollow links pass “link equity” (authority) from the host site to yours — these have the most direct SEO value.
  • Nofollow links don’t pass authority directly, but they still drive referral traffic, aid discovery, and make for a natural-looking, diverse backlink profile.
A healthy backlink profile includes both. Don’t skip a relevant, high-traffic site just because it’s nofollow.

​
Plan availability

The Free links directory is included with any active subscription or trial — the same access gate as the Collaboration network.
