Publish directory badges for indie makers with instant updates

BadgeRelay is a tool designed for indie makers and founders to manage and publish reciprocal directory badges across multiple websites without needing to redeploy their code. By embedding a single lightweight script, users can collect, reorder, and update all their badges from one dashboard, ensuring their footers stay current and verification badges remain live. This solution simplifies badge management by separating badges from the codebase, allowing instant updates visible to crawlers and verification bots without additional deployments.
Add one lightweight script to your site to enable badge management without further code changes.
Manage all badges from one simple dashboard to collect, reorder, and publish instantly.
Badges are rendered on the server so crawlers and verification bots can read them immediately.
Choose from clean row, carousel, or compact badge layouts to fit your site design.
Publish, reorder, or remove badges and changes appear immediately without redeploying.
Maintain verification badges live and keep directory links intact with backlink support.
