Marginalia is a free web directory organised into 22 editorial desks. Each desk covers a specific beat — from Finance & Markets to Travel & Leisure — and the sites listed in it were filed there by editors who reviewed them against that desk brief. We currently hold 835 approved entries.

Is it free to list my site?

Yes. Submission and listing are both free of charge. There is no premium tier, no sponsored placement, and no fee of any kind. Submit through the form on any desk page or via the Add a Site link in the header.

How are sites organised?

Sites are assigned to one of 22 desks based on their primary subject or service. Within each desk, entries appear in chronological order by date of submission. There is no ranking by traffic or any other metric — the list is flat and unordered beyond filing date.

How do I submit a site?

Use the Add a Site form. Select the desk that best matches your site, enter the URL, and provide a short title and description. Editors review submissions on a rolling basis and file approved entries to the appropriate desk.

Do you review every submission?

Yes. Every submitted site goes through a brief editorial review before it is added to the directory. We check that the site is reachable, that it fits the desk it was submitted to, and that it meets basic quality standards. Sites that do not pass review are not listed.

How long does review take?

Most submissions are reviewed within a few days. There is no fixed schedule — editors process the queue on a rolling basis. You will see your site appear in the directory once it has been approved and filed to the appropriate desk.

Can I submit a site to more than one desk?

Each site is assigned to a single desk that best reflects its primary focus. If your site covers multiple topics, submit it to the desk that matches its main purpose. Editors may reassign a submission to a more appropriate desk during review.
