How to List on Dextools and Add Social Media Links
If you want to drive as many sales as possible for your token, you need to be listed on every exchange you can to increase reach. Once you are there, add your social media links and logos to attract investors.
Every piece of information a token has on DexTools affects its score, which is a measure of the token’s legitimacy.
In this post, I’ll show you how to list a token on dextools, add token details, and improve your score to signal that your token is legitimate.
How do you get listed on DexTools?
There is not much mystery here. DexTools does not work like a traditional listing site where you need to pass checks before appearing on the dex. Instead, DexTools pulls data directly from the Blockchain automatically.
To do that, all you really need to do is create your liquidity pool on one of the better-known exchanges, and it will show up on DexTools automatically.
That said, simply appearing on this exchange does not mean your token will suddenly get strong trading volume. DexTool will assign you a score that reflects how trustworthy your token looks.
The higher your score, the more likely investors are to show up. You can improve it by making the project more transparent, for example by adding verifiable links. I will cover that in the next sections.
How to add social media links to DexTools
To add your links to DexTools, all you need to do is fill out the official form on the DexTools website. That is what we did for our token $SHRIMP. You can see the logo next to the symbol, with our social media links displayed underneath.
That helped us raise our score, bringing it up to 94 points. This puts the token in the highest trust tier. I’ll break down how those tiers work in the next section.
What Is the Score on Dextools, and How Do You Increase It?
DexTools’s algorithm assigns a score based on specific parameters for the token in question to determine whether it is a rug pull. The higher the score, the more trustworthy the token looks, which can attract more investors.
We break the score into 4 reliability tiers:
- High DEXT Score (80 or higher): Tokens in this range are considered more likely to be legitimate, with a solid social presence, strong liquidity, and active transaction history. These tokens are usually safer plays, but as always, users should do their own research (DYOR).
- Average DEXT Score (50 to 80): Tokens in this range may have missing or incomplete information, such as low liquidity or weak social proof. Some may simply be newer projects, but others could be more sophisticated scams. Extra caution and deeper research are strongly recommended.
- Low DEXT Score (Below 50): Tokens with a score in this range are often new and may be missing several key trust signals. This category can include both high-risk opportunities and outright scams, so investors need to be extremely careful.
- Minimum DEXT Score (Less than 10): In almost every case, tokens with a score this low are scams. These projects usually have little to no liquidity, weak or nonexistent social information, and barely any transaction activity. Investing in these tokens carries an extremely high risk of loss.
To increase our token score, we need to think like an investor.
To do that, the first thing to plan when launching your token is how much liquidity you are going to provide. More liquidity can signal stronger credibility, and this is one of the parameters that affects the DexTools algorithm.
The second thing people look at is transaction count. A token with zero transactions, or barely any, does not look credible. That is why it is worth spending time with your community through airdrops. The same logic applies to the number of holders.
Conclusion
Listing on DexTools is a key requirement if you want your token to be sellable. Even better, aim for a high score so you can earn more investor trust and drive more sales.
