ThomasNet
Depends on your product. A genuinely relevant, professional-buyer audience for an industrial or manufacturing product business, but we could not verify a self-serve submission form from a primary source this session (the advertise/registration pages returned access errors on every fetch) — confirm the current signup path directly with ThomasNet before budgeting for it.
0.25M monthly visits · Free + paid upgrades (third-party figures, sourced 2026-08-31).
Who actually reads it
Procurement and engineering buyers sourcing industrial products and manufacturing services — roughly 250K monthly visits (SimilarWeb, 2026-08-31) against 1.3M+ registered buyer users, a small-but-deep-intent professional audience rather than a mass consumer one.
What a strong listing looks like
A complete supplier profile with certifications, capabilities and real product/service categories a buyer would search — ThomasNet is widely known for selling enhanced/premium placement through its own sales team rather than a simple self-serve form, so a strong free profile plus a clear-eyed look at whether the paid tier is worth it is the realistic approach.

Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
A basic supplier presence appears to be free, with enhanced/premium placement sold separately — we could not verify current pricing from a primary source this session.
Is this relevant to a software or consumer brand?
No — it is specifically for industrial and manufacturing product suppliers and the procurement buyers who source from them.
How do I get listed?
We could not confirm a live self-serve registration form this session; the realistic path is likely a sales conversation rather than an anonymous web form.
