# The badge, three ways

Target mark, hard shadow, three colorways. Put one on your homepage. We re-check weekly.

## Checker rules

- The link must point at https://www.makeitla.st/.
- No rel=nofollow, sponsored, or ugc.
- If the badge disappears, the listing stays live and the outbound link drops to nofollow until you re-verify.
- The bot identifies as `makeitlastbot/1.0`.
