Open source · Backlink opportunities

Profile link

Create a public repository named like your username with a README.md — GitHub renders it on your profile. README and profile website links on github.com are nofollow.

Post link

Publish a static site or docs on github.io (or a custom domain). Unlike READMEs on github.com, Pages serves your HTML without adding rel=nofollow to outbound links you author.

GitHub contribution

Publish an OCI image to GitHub Container Registry under your user or org. The package page lives on github.com — README and repo links use GitHub’s nofollow sanitizer, similar to profile READMEs.

GitHub contribution

Open a PR on the awesome-selfhosted repository that adds your tool in the correct category with a concise description. Merged list links render on github.com with nofollow like other README links.
