You should make this an actual clickable link just FYI, as it will then serve as a backlink when HN renders it via an <a> tag.

Wait <a> tags work on HN? I thought it just auto-linkified?

Like so: https://listingbott.com

The generated HTML on HN when you inspect the source is like so:

    <a href="https://listingbott.com" rel="nofollow">https://listingbott.com</a>
It is a nofollow link so not sure how much SEO juice you'd get out of it, but if I google Index Rusher right now, I get this HN post as the second link, where the first is the product's website itself.
really? How does it get indexed by google so fast? posted an hour ago. pretty cool
