Wanted to gauge interest in an idea like this.

I work on a search engine (shopboreal) to find products from local and independent ecommerce stores instead of shopping on Amazon. I was thinking about adding a feature for people to promote their new ecommerce shops in a similar way to using producthunt. The primary goal is to give new stores early traffic at launch, something I struggled with when I opened my first Shopify store.

Would you be interested in a functionality like this? Please share if you are a shopper, store owner, or both.
