The basics
Maker of the week is our Featured launch. It sits in the Featured spot on the homepage with a clear label, holding your listing there for 7 days. It costs $19.
This is a paid placement, full stop. It does not add votes, shift rankings or change leaderboards. The community's votes stay separate.
How to get it
Your listing needs to be live or booked into a launch week. When you submit your listing, you can add it on the plan step. Already live? Sign in, go to /account/listings and pick "Upgrades and extras" next to your listing. Check /pricing for the current cost.
When it runs
If you are live now, your 7 days start straight away once you pay. Booked for later? The timer kicks off on the Monday your launch week begins, when your listing goes live.
Run it again while it is active and you add 7 more days after this run ends. Shift your launch week and your Featured days move with it.
What it is not
Featured is its own thing. It sits apart from Sponsored slots (/sponsor), the billboard and community votes. You cannot swap one for another.
Questions people ask
- Does Maker of the week change my votes or ranking?
- No. Featured is a paid spot only. Your votes stay yours, and the community ranking stays driven by votes, not by this payment.
- What if I add it after my launch goes live?
- Your 7 days start the moment you pay. If you buy it again while it is running, 7 more days stack on after the current run ends.
- Do featured launches get moved to the top of a list?
- Featured puts you in the Featured spot on the homepage only. It is a labelled placement and changes no other list or ranking.
