Gotchas

There is no free tier at all. Their pricing page opens with 'Premium listings only', so you cannot see the form or test the flow without paying.
The link is real: live listings carry rel="noopener external" with no nofollow, which is what the $9 buys.
The $45 tier is consulting rather than a listing: a site debug, an SEO audit and a written review. Judge it as that, not as a directory placement.
