Domain Rating

Domain Rating is an Ahrefs backlink-strength metric, not a Google ranking score or a measure of product quality. Public readings must match the current product domain and be no more than 21 days old. History covers recorded readings for that domain; missing history does not mean the rating never changed.

What is SaaStore?

SaaStore is a curated marketplace for software built by independent makers. Every listing is hand-reviewed before it goes live and can earn independent trust signals: a third-party security scan, a UI/UX audit, a persona-fit audit, a phone-verified seller, and a manual review. SaaStore is a discovery layer, not a checkout - buyers try the product and pay the maker directly on the maker's own site. Browse by category, trust badge, or search to find indie SaaS tools you can trust and afford.
