# The best SaaSBoard alternatives in 2026 (logo walls for SaaS and indie)

> 10 SaaSBoard alternatives for putting your SaaS or indie project's logo on a shared wall — prices, what you place, mechanics and status as of August 2026.

SaaSBoard (saasboard.app) is a 2026 logo board: a 100×100 zoomable grid where a 1×1 tile is free and bigger blocks cost $10 per tile per month or $100 per tile per year, and you drag to pick position and size. People look for alternatives because they want a one-time price instead of a subscription, a wall with more going on than a directory, or a place that isn't SaaS-only. The one-line answer: **Square Town (square.pov.town)** is the cheapest one-time option at $1 a square with a live game attached; **The Logo Wall** and **The SaaS Wall** are the closest one-time logo boards; **The Startup Board** and **Link for a Dollar** are the tiered-block versions.

> **TL;DR (as of August 2026):** Free forever, small — SaaSBoard's 1×1 or WebTiles. $1 one-time, favicon, evictable — Square Town. $5 one-time logo sticker with a profile — The Logo Wall. Hand-drawn pixel logo from 5¢ a block — The SaaS Wall. Tiered blocks $5–$75 with a founder profile — The Startup Board. Big budget, permanent — TopWorldStartups (from $100) or The Indie Wall ($249).

## What SaaSBoard does well, and what it doesn't

SaaSBoard is the closest product analogue to Square Town: a logo tile on a shared grid, pick your spot, indie/SaaS audience, about 111 listings as of August 2026. Its free 1×1 tile is genuinely the cheapest way onto any wall in this list. What it lacks: a one-time price for anything bigger than 1×1 (bigger blocks are monthly or yearly), any reason for visitors to return (no evictions, throne, decay or live feed), and it wants an uploaded logo rather than pulling your favicon. Head-to-head: [Square Town vs SaaSBoard](/vs/saasboard).

## The 10 best SaaSBoard alternatives

1. **[Square Town](/)** — a favicon wall: every square is 1×1, $1 one-time via Stripe, no account, no upload. Paste your URL, Square Town fetches the favicon, click an empty cell. Unlike a directory, things happen: any square can be evicted for double what its owner paid, a $100 Throne sits in the centre and doubles per eviction, icons nobody kisses for 90 days fade to grayscale, and every buy and eviction is pushed live to everyone watching. Each square gets a deed page with views, clicks and kisses ($5 one-time unlocks per-day analytics). **Best for:** indie hackers and SaaS founders who want a spot for each project at $1 and a wall people come back to. **Drawbacks:** no logo upload (your favicon is the ad), no big blocks, no description text under the icon, and someone can evict you for $2. See [/pricing](/pricing) and [/for/saas-founders](/for/saas-founders).

2. **The Logo Wall** — $5 one-time (or $10 featured) for a logo sticker with its own profile page and link, sorted into categories with "most viewed" and "most loved" rankings; ~107 logos as of August 2026. It advertises a dofollow backlink. **Best for:** anyone who wants a proper profile page behind their logo for a one-time fiver. **Drawback:** it is a categorised list — no positional scarcity, no eviction, nothing to defend. See [/vs/the-logo-wall](/vs/the-logo-wall).

3. **[The SaaS Wall](https://www.thesaaswall.com)** — you draw a pixel-art logo in a built-in editor and buy 100-px blocks in price bands that start at $0.05 per block, step to $1 and keep rising as the wall fills; SaaS-only; 123 blocks as of August 2026. **Best for:** founders who enjoy drawing their own logo and want to get in before the bands rise. **Drawback:** hand-drawn pixel logos take effort, and it is permanent with no game. See [/vs/the-saas-wall](/vs/the-saas-wall).

4. **[The Startup Board](https://thestartupboard.net)** — one-time $5 for a 10×10 block, $25 or $75 for bigger, on a million-pixel canvas with a verified-founder badge and a founder profile; it sells a single 2026 cohort and then freezes. It also pitches a dofollow backlink. **Best for:** founders who want to be in a dated class photo. **Drawback:** once the cohort closes nothing changes, ever.

5. **[Link for a Dollar](https://linkforadollar.com/)** — $1 per square, $4 for a 2×2, $25 for a 5×5, on a permanent 1M-square grid with logo or initials, brand name, categories, a click-count leaderboard and email-domain verification. **Best for:** brands that want a verified listing at SaaSBoard-like prices without the subscription. **Drawback:** five squares claimed as of August 2026. See [/alternatives/link-for-a-dollar](/alternatives/link-for-a-dollar).

6. **[TopWorldStartups](https://www.topworldstartups.com)** — $1 per pixel in blocks from 10×10 ($100) to 100×100 ($10,000) via Polar.sh, on a million-pixel grid with a globe pin and per-buyer analytics; early buyers get the best positions. **Best for:** funded startups that want a big permanent logo. **Drawback:** $100 minimum and zero sold as of August 2026.

7. **[The Indie Wall](https://www.theindiewall.net)** — a curated wall of logo bricks with a project page each, sold at $249 one-time as part of a BacklinkRocket bundle, manually reviewed, permanent; 39 projects as of August 2026. **Best for:** people buying an SEO bundle who also get a wall spot. **Drawback:** 249 times the price of a Square Town, and no game.

8. **[IndieTool](https://www.indietool.io)** — a classic directory for the same audience: free with a badge, or $19.99 for a lifetime listing with a link. **Best for:** anyone who wants a directory entry rather than a wall. **Drawback:** it is a list, not a place; nothing to see. Compare [/vs/startup-directories](/vs/startup-directories).

9. **[WebTiles](https://webtiles.kicya.net/)** — free: register and get a tile that is a tiny 250×250 HTML/CSS/JS mini-site linking to your site, on a large shared grid with neighbours, a live online count and chat; 230 points on Hacker News. **Best for:** the indie-web crowd who'd rather hand-code a tile than upload a logo. **Drawback:** free means no scarcity and nothing at stake; you have to build the tile yourself.

10. **[SaaSBoard](https://saasboard.app)** — for completeness: 1×1 tile free, bigger blocks $10 per tile per month or $100 per tile per year, drag to place, logo plus description plus link, ~111 listings. **Best for:** a free logo listing you might upgrade. **Drawback:** subscription for anything bigger, uploaded logo, no game loop.

## How to choose

- **Free is the requirement:** SaaSBoard's 1×1, WebTiles (build your own tile), or IndieTool's badge tier.
- **One-time and cheap:** Square Town ($1, favicon), The SaaS Wall (from 5¢ a block), The Logo Wall ($5), The Startup Board ($5).
- **You have many projects:** Square Town — one square per favicon, $1 each, all on one wall; see [/for/developers-with-many-side-projects](/for/developers-with-many-side-projects).
- **You want a profile page behind the logo:** The Logo Wall, The Startup Board, The Indie Wall.
- **You want the wall to be alive later:** pick something with a loop. Square Town's evictions, Throne, decay and live feed exist precisely because static logo boards go quiet after launch week — see [why clones die](/blog/pixel-wall-graveyard-why-clones-die).

On backlinks: several boards here sell "dofollow" links; judge that on their own claims. Square Town does not — its clicks are counted 302 redirects on a WebGL canvas. Buy visibility and a showcase, not PageRank.
