Good to know

Gem page links are nofollow, and this only makes sense if you ship real Ruby code.

Are RubyGems.org links dofollow?

No. RubyGems.org marks its links rel="nofollow", so they pass little ranking value. They still bring visitors and help show your business is real.

Is RubyGems.org free?

Yes. Listing on RubyGems.org is free.

How much work does a listing on RubyGems.org take?

A full profile with screenshots or a verification step: about an hour. How long approval takes is up to RubyGems.org: many sites review a listing before it goes live.
