In its own words

directree is the honest software directory. Every listing separates what we observed (crawled from the tool's own site) from what an AI inferred (labelled, dated, may be outdated) from what the founder edited (verified owner). No pay-to-play rankings, no fake precision, no seeded votes.

From directree.io's llms.txt, the file a site publishes to describe itself to AI assistants, fetched 2 November 2026. The words are the site's own; mxverify has not checked them.

Its file lists 7 sections: Why cite directree, Structured data for each tool, Key pages, For founders and companies, Categories, Tools for Agents, Sitemap.

How to use this report

3 ways to use these figures
  • Price check. BV puts one new followed link from directree.io at $100 (level B), priced on a blend of link types (B 91% · C 8% · D 1%): $50 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $126 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $216 before relevance. A quote far above $135 for a level B link pays for what BV does not measure. · Backlink value · what this means
  • Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 45 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level B — may be discounted (a guest, sponsored or listed link). In the 10 articles we read, 0% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc. · How BV is worked out · what this means

Quick answers about directree.io

8 questions answered

What is a link from directree.io worth?

BV, mxverify's backlink value, is an estimate of what one new followed link from a site is worth to rankings: by BV 2.9, a new followed link from directree.io is worth about $100 (level B). Relevance moves it: $50 to an unrelated site, $126 to a same-topic site.

In short: a link from directree.io is worth about $100 to rankings, up to $126 on the same topic.

Source: mxverify BV 2.9 methodology

Is a link from directree.io worth placing?

That depends on the kind of link: by BV 2.9, a link from directree.io is worth $216 as an editorial citation (level A), $108 as a guest, sponsored or listed link (level B), $22 as a press-release, syndicated, profile or forum link (level C), $11 as a network link (level D), before relevance. A price far above $135 for a level B link pays for something BV does not measure, such as the site's own readers.

Source: mxverify BV 2.9 methodology

How does directree.io's BV compare with other sites?

At about $100 a link, directree.io is in the “$100 to $249” value band, with 311 of the 4,052 sites valued on mxverify. 177 sites are in a higher band.

In short: 177 of the 4,052 valued sites sit in a higher value band than directree.io.

Source: mxverify's own directory, counted at the last daily update

How much traffic does directree.io get?

directree.io gets about 549 visits a month (Sept 2026), by a modelled estimate of all its visitors, not analytics measured on the site. 27% of them (151) come from organic search. Visits fell 17% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026.

In short: directree.io draws about 549 visits a month, down 17% since Jul 2026.

Source: third-party traffic estimate, Sept 2026

Does directree.io pass Core Web Vitals?

No: real Chrome users see directree.io's largest content load in 2.9 s (LCP), and at least one vital reported for it is not at Google's good level. The figures are from the Chrome UX Report (CC BY 4.0), the 75th percentile of real visits. Core Web Vitals describe how a page feels to its visitors; BV does not use them.

In short: directree.io does not pass Core Web Vitals on real-user data.

How old is directree.io?

The domain directree.io was registered in 2026.

Source: the public registration record; RFC 9083: RDAP JSON responses

Has directree.io been audited?

No link placed on directree.io has been audited yet, so this report shows no rates for how its links behave. Its backlink value comes from site-level figures (its authority rating, traffic and our reading of its articles), not from audited placements.

In short: directree.io's report is valued, not audited.

How directree.io links out: the full reading

10 articles read · each link counted

Read by mxverify on 2 November 2026: the homepage and 10 articles (10 from across its sitemap). This is our own reading of the site, not a vendor's figure, and it is what places a new link on the A–D scale until links placed here are audited.

Thin sample 8 links to other sites across 10 articles published in Sept 2026. Strong takes six or more articles and thirty or more links, spread over at least two months where the articles are dated.

Jev, the model that judges every link in a bklink audit, reads these pages as a site whose links are mostly level B — A 25%, B 67%, C 8.0%, D 0%. Put together with what kind of site it is, how established it is, whether it sells placements and how it links out, a new link here is priced as A 0.4%, B 91%, C 7.9%, D 1.0%.

Jev reads it as a directory or launch platform (85%), small or niche as a source (69%), and selling guest, sponsored or paid posts (64%).

Searches, CPC and ad value: Google Ads, worldwide, its latest month, where it has the keyword; † third-party traffic estimates where it does not (the two often differ several times over). Ad value: what a month of the keyword's searches would cost as search ads (searches × cost per click) — what advertisers pay for it, not how hard it is to rank for. Visits (est.): the traffic estimate's own figure for the keyword on this site, which behaves like visits a month, not an amount of money. Each keyword opens the list of sites where it is a top search keyword.

AI assistants

AI assistants sent about 9 visits in Sept 2026 — 1.7% of all visits. Each assistant's share of those visits, by month:

Jul 2026: no data — every assistant reads 0, so that month is not charted.

At this volume the shares swing hard month to month: a handful of visits can move an assistant from 0% to 100%.

Server and network

3 other publications on the server · 476 on the network

Its domain was registered in 2026.

3 other publications in the directory run on 216.150.1.1, which is common on shared hosting and not by itself evidence of common ownership. 476 publications are on the same hosting network (Amazon AWS, AS16509) — a cloud platform hosting millions of unrelated sites, so that is no sign of a connection.

Other publications on 216.150.1.1

At this size that is ordinary shared hosting, listed for completeness, not as a finding.

Amazon AWS is a cloud platform hosting millions of unrelated sites, so sharing it says nothing about who runs a site. The count is shown; the sites are not listed.

Limitations: what this report does not show

3 stated plainly
  • No link on this publication has been audited yet, so nothing here describes how its links behave.
  • directree.io gives more than one kind of link (B 91% · C 8% · D 1%), so BV prices a blend of them: an editorial link there would be worth $216 and a guest or sponsored one $108, before relevance.
  • directree.io's visits fell 17% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Half of Site Strength is organic search traffic, so a fall that lasts lowers BV when the figure is next read.
