What you actually get
A launch listing in one of six categories, with what their own footer calls a permanent dofollow backlink from day one. They also run alternatives pages and a Winners section, so the board has a shape beyond the daily list. None of it could be checked from inside, because the account could not be created.
How to submit to Puthusu
- Try to sign in/submit redirects to /login, which offers Continue with Google above an email and password form.
- Watch it refuseThe Google round trip completes and lands on /api/auth/error?error=AccessDenied reading "You do not have permission to sign in". It did this twice on clean attempts.
Puthusu requirements
An account
Google, or email and password
Gotchas
Their Google sign-in refuses accounts outright. The consent screen completes and then drops you on an AccessDenied error page, which reproduced on two clean attempts, so the only remaining route is a password.
Nothing about the submission form, its fields or its review time can be seen from outside the account, so the dofollow promise in their footer is the only thing on offer that can be read.
The site is a Superkabe property rather than a standalone board, which is worth knowing when weighing how long the listing will be maintained.
