ICO Listing Websites and Services

ICO listing websites have become a required part of the Initial Coin Offering ecosystem. There are numerous websites with ratings, profiles and descriptions of projects that are using ICO to raise funds. Some may claim that if your ICO is not listed on any of those websites, then your ICO doesn’t exist. Now, let us find out if that is true, how much do the listings cost, and is it worth spending money of your marketing budget on that.
ICO listing services explained
At the moment of writing, there are over 100 ICO listing websites. Some of them are more or less popular, but still, they are all operating. Usually, such websites offer the following ICO listing services:
— ICO listing for free. As a rule, it is a basic listing of your ICO, and that means that it will be lost somewhere in the long tables of other ICOs.
— Featured ICO listing. Most websites offer paid listing options. Basically, you pay to make your ICO more visible (on top of the tables) to the website’s visitors.
— ICO review. Some websites offer detailed reviews of the ICO projects. Naturally, such reviews are mostly paid.
— Newsletter. With this option, you will be offered to be included in a newsletter to the website’s subscribers.
— Banner advertising. Visitors of the ICO listing websites can be a potential target audience for any ICO, so some projects place paid banners on such websites to gain more traffic.
— News and updates. Finally, some ICO listing websites have News sections, where the news or press releases of ICOs are published.
Many ICO websites also have an ICO Calendar feature, where the projects are split into upcoming, live, and ended ones, and are located according to the token sale dates.
ICO listing price
There are several factors that influence the ICO listing price on various websites. First and foremost, there are really many ICOs happening and about to happen. Therefore, the competition in the market is pretty high. Secondly, the more traffic an ICO website has, the more money it’s able to ask for featured options. Finally, we should forget about the crypto ad ban by Facebook and Google. After all, ICO listings have gained more traction as advertising platforms now, when Google Ads and ICO promotion via Facebook are hard to achieve.
The prices range from $50 up to $10,000 per listing, and there is literally no limit. If you are aiming to get result from the listing services and be presented everywhere, then you should count on a budget of at least $50,000.
How to get your ICO listed
So, the reason why you’d want your ICO to get listed is to target potential investors and get to the top of a rating. If you analyze ICOs that have successfully closed the rounds, then you will see that they make sure to be listed on the top websites and get featured there. Because even though the projects may have an outstanding idea behind them, then may not get funded if they are not visible to investors.
The best way to get the maximum presence with the lowest efforts and expenditures is to cooperate with a marketing agency that is working directly with the ICO listing websites. At INCRYPTICO, we offer an ICO promotion package that includes listing on over 50 websites. If you are interested in more information, drop up a request to info@incryptico.com.
