Rules
indiehackers.lol is a public leaderboard. There are no ads, no algorithm, and no revenue share. You pay to stand above everyone else. Rank is the bid — nothing else.
How ranking works
- >New listings are whole US dollars, $5 minimum, $999,999 maximum, $1 at a time. Bids already on the board keep their amount until they raise or get outranked.
- >Taking #1 costs at least $5 more than the current top bid. Paying less still puts you on the board at whatever rank that bid can take. Equal bids stay in the order they were placed — the older bid keeps the higher rank.
- >Enter the same @handle again to raise that listing to any rank. The new bid must be at least $1 above your current bid; you only pay the difference. Someone else cannot take your rank by paying that difference.
- >One listing per X handle. Handles are matched case-insensitively, so @LevelsIO and @levelsio are the same listing.
What you can list
- >An X @handle — yours or one you're happy to pay to promote.
- >Profile name, avatar, bio, and follower count are pulled live from X and refreshed periodically. If your X profile changes, the board follows it.
- >Suspended, deleted, or non-existent handles cannot be listed.
- >No sexual content, no NSFW or adult accounts. If it doesn't belong in a public timeline, it doesn't belong on the board.
After you pay
- >Your listing is public and links straight to x.com/yourhandle.
- >A completed payment is what claims the rank — the board updates the moment the payment clears.
- >Payments are final. There are no refunds when someone outbids you; that's the entire game.
