The highest bid takes #1, the second highest takes #2, and so on. There is no algorithm or editorial selection — rank is purely market-driven. ## How does aeglyn work?+ Submit your MCP server URL, choose a category, and place a bid starting at $5. If your bid is the highest in your category, you take the #1 spot. You keep that position until someone outbids you. Payment is one-time via Razorpay — no subscriptions. ## What do I get for my bid?+ You get the #1 position in your category with a dofollow backlink from aeglyn.site and a permanent listing that moves down (never removed) when outbid. ## What happens when I am outbid?+ When someone places a higher bid, you move down one rank. Your listing remains on the board permanently — it is never removed. You only pay once and keep the backlink at your new rank. You can always bid again to reclaim a higher position. ## What is the anti-snipe mechanism?+ If a bid is placed in the last 3 minutes of an auction, the timer extends by 3 minutes. This prevents last-second sniping and gives other bidders a fair chance to respond. The extension continues with each new last-minute bid. ## Which categories are available?+ Aeglyn supports categories for Slack, Notion, GitHub, Database, Filesystem, Search, Productivity, Communication, Automation, Payments, Monitoring, Email, AI, and Utility MCP servers. Each category has its own independent ranking. ## Is the backlink dofollow?+ Yes. Paid listings receive dofollow backlinks from aeglyn.site. Free seed listings are marked nofollow. The backlink is permanent — even after being outbid, your listing retains a link at its new rank position. ## How much does it cost?+ Starter tier is $5 one-time for #1 position. Featured tier is $15 for additional visibility features. Sponsor tier is $29 for maximum exposure including a top banner. All tiers are one-time payments with no recurring fees. ## Ready to Own #1?
