Verdict: API List is a free dofollow target at DR 37 with Manual Review in 1-3 days. Submit for link equity and discovery.
API List is a public collection of more than 800 free APIs for programmers, and owners can add their own API. With a domain rating of 45, free submission, and a dofollow link, few free links match it for developer relevance. The audience is programmers looking for building blocks, so the listing should read like documentation: what the API does, not marketing copy. Only public APIs belong here.
Submit free at apilist.fun/add-api with no account needed.
Have the API documentation URL ready, since that is what the audience actually clicks.
Write the entry around endpoints and use cases rather than brand language.
Manual review takes a few days.
After approval, test the listing link and confirm it lands on the docs, not just the homepage.
