How to get your website on a homepage this week

Direct answer

Tap Get my referral link, paste your website, and send the link. A short Just entered chip is free. Longer homepage time comes when friends tap Get my link. Getting a link alone does not keep you on the page.

Why does a homepage spot help new sites?

New websites have a discovery problem. Search engines take time to find and trust a new site, and launch directories often have long queues or require a badge in return. A homepage spot that you can earn this week is one more place real people may see your site while you work on the slower channels.

We will not promise traffic numbers. What you get is a visible, labeled spot on a live homepage.

What are the steps?

Open viralrefer.app and tap Get my referral link. No email.
Paste your website. That gives a Just entered chip for about 15 minutes.
Send your link to a few people who know you.
1 unique friend taps Get my link: claim a Rising drop for about 1 hour.
2 friends: a week text line with your site.
#2 or #3 on the board: the Challenger strip.
#1 this week (not the operator) with 3 friends: the 7-day banner.

Details on every rung: the Site Drop ladder.

What does not put you on the page?

Getting a link and closing the tab.
Copying the link and never sending it.
Visits, refreshes or screenshots.
Buying traffic. Visits are not credits.

What if I would rather not race?

A labeled 7-day Featured Partner slot is $29 at /go/sponsor/. It is not a contest prize and does not affect rank. Comparison: Featured Partner vs the free race.

What other honest ways are there to get seen?

A homepage spot works best alongside other channels: answering real questions in communities where you participate, submitting to launch directories that fit your product, and writing pages that answer what your audience searches for. Be careful with directories that require a badge or link in return, and read their rules before you agree.

What message should I send?

"I'm racing to put my site on viralrefer.app this week. You only count if you tap Get my link. No signup, no cash." Then your link. More: hook bank.

How do I make homepage visits worth it?

Homepage visitors will only spend a few seconds deciding whether to click. Make sure the page you paste loads quickly, works on a phone, and says in one line what the site is for. A clear site turns more of the visibility into real visits.

Timing helps too. The board resets every Monday at 00:00 UTC, so sending early in the week gives your friends the most days to tap and gives you the most time to reach a higher rung before the reset.

FAQ

Can I do this without an email?

Yes. There is no account. It takes about 30 seconds to get a link.

Is the prize cash?

No. Site Drops and the banner are homepage visibility only.

How long will my site stay on the homepage?

It depends on the rung: about 15 minutes, about 1 hour, the rest of the week, or 7 days for the banner.

Do I need to be #1 to appear?

No. Every rung from one friend upward puts your site on the homepage for a while.
