About the startup
You already recommend things every day. Your favorite films, the restaurant you keep telling people about, the book that changed how you think, the tools that run your business. But it's all scattered - buried in DMs, lost in notes apps, forgotten in threads nobody scrolls back to. recommended.by gives you one permanent, beautiful link for all of it. Claim your vanity URL (like recommended.by/yourname), build curated lists across 11 categories — movies, TV, books, music, podcasts, travel, restaurants, products, tools, and courses — and share a single link that actually looks good. Why people love it:
- Unforgettable URL — Your name, your taste, one link: recommended.by/you. No random slugs, no ugly URLs. Category subdomains too: books.recommended.by/you.
- Beautiful lists in under a minute — Search-powered by TMDB, Open Library, and Google Places. Add a movie or restaurant in seconds, not minutes. Rank them or keep it casual.
- Public or private — Share everything openly, or keep personal lists just for you.
- Built for creators — Affiliate links on every plan. Creator plan unlocks paid lists and subscriptions so your taste becomes income.
- SEO backlink included — Every profile includes a dofollow backlink to your website. Your recommendations boost your search presence. Who it's for: - Anyone who's tired of re-typing the same recommendations in group chats - Creators & influencers who want to monetize their curated taste - Founders & brands who want a clean recommendation page with SEO value (and a juicy backlink) No free tier, no ads, no clutter. One-time payment starting at $99 and it's yours forever.
