Traffic Asset
Free Directory Submission Tracker
A manual tracker for researching free places to share Kiloparse tools, articles, and checklists.
Hey guys,
This tracker is for manual research and ethical promotion. It does not submit Kiloparse anywhere automatically. Directory rules, submission availability, and community standards can change, so each target should be checked manually before posting.
How to use this tracker
Start by choosing one Kiloparse page that is genuinely useful, such as the Monetization Readiness Scorecard, Newsletter Signup Checker, Trust Page Checklist, or Content Depth Calculator. Then research one destination at a time. Check whether the place allows free submissions, whether self-promotion is allowed, whether there is a specific launch format, and whether a link would be helpful to that audience.
Do not treat this as a spam list. Treat it as a research queue. If a place is not relevant, skip it. If a place requires paid placement, skip it for the free-traffic plan. If a community forbids self-promotion, participate without links or do not post.
