Getting started with voting
To vote for a launch you love, sign in to New Biz Launches and confirm your email address. You can then vote once per listing, and only on launches that are live right now.
Fair voting for everyone
We keep votes honest with a few straightforward rules. You can vote for your own launch, but only after you've voted for someone else's first—it keeps things neighbourly. We run a quick human check now and then to make sure everything looks right. If someone tries to flood a listing with votes in a short burst, our system spots it and holds those votes for review.
Rating limits per hour and per day stop abuse before it starts.
Votes are earned, not bought
Here's what matters: votes, our paid ranking (the billboard), verification badges and factual data like Domain Rating are four completely separate things. No amount of money can change your vote count. Instead, active members of the community build influence over time, and that influence can give their votes more weight. The more you show up and engage, the more your voice counts.
Questions people ask
- Can I buy votes for my launch?
- No. Votes stay separate from paid features. Only active participation in the community builds influence and vote weight—there's no shortcut.
- What happens if I vote for lots of launches very quickly?
- Suspicious bursts get flagged by our system and held for review before they're counted. Steady, genuine voting is always welcome.
- Do I need to confirm my email to vote?
- Yes. Sign in and confirm your email address, and you're ready to vote for live launches.
