A listing counts the day its backlink resolves.
It picks the listings your product fits from the bundled directory list, sequences the submissions around launch day, tailors the positioning per directory, and then does the part everyone skips: reading the live listing's link attributes and logging them in a tracker. Three hard rules and a what-not-to-do section keep it from spraying. Launch orchestration is suede-launch-packaging.
