How to submit to Sites Plus

  1. Pick a category
    Step one is a tree of fourteen top-level categories. Computers is the closest thing to software.
  2. Pick a link type
    Step two is Featured $12, Premium $5, or Regular free. The free option is the unlabelled third radio at the bottom.
  3. Fill the listing
    Title, URL, a rich-text description, an optional owner email, meta keywords and a meta description capped at 250. Tick the rules agreement and press Continue.

Gotchas

This is a general web directory from the older internet: the categories are Arts, Health, Recreation and Society, and the recent listings are local trades and services. A software product is an unusual guest.
The newsletter checkbox next to the owner email is ticked by default.
Nothing comes back but a line saying the link is submitted and awaiting approval, with no reference and no stated review time.
