We ve got a big update: after ten years, we re officially sunsetting the Golden Kitty Awards.

Yesterday, in a few Reddit forums and generally from the discussions around me, I noticed that people are "tired" of office work.

Either too much routine or exaggerated demands on creativity and the like. Mostly, these are people who are paid well and can afford to "leave" their jobs to explore, relax, do something else.

Have you ever wondered what Google thinks of your landing page, product page or blog posts?
There are a ton of SEO tools that try to help you rank better on Google but did you know that there are actually official guidelines by Google on content?
We did a deep dive on Google's EEAT guidelines and built a simple free tool that lets you check a URL for how well your content scores against the guidelines.
It works for any URL, can be your own website, the website of a competitor or of a client.
We just launched on Product Hunt today:

If you have any feedback for us on how we can make LLM SEO EEAT better for you: let us know!

I've been on this platform for over 2 years, and we have to admit that the number of tools that appear here every day is truly unimaginable.

Sometimes it's hard to select the best ones, but I have to say that some that I found a few months or years ago, I still use every day because they are useful to me in some way.

Weekends are for side projects!

Share what you're going to be building or an idea you're kicking around.

I'll start, I can't believe I didn't know this -

A friend taught me earlier today regarding the "plus trick", also known as "plus addressing", for Gmail addresses.

You simply type in + after the prefix of your email address along with any text, and any email sent to this will still arrive in your inbox.

Hey Product Hunt community!

I'm diving into the world of bootstrapping and want to build something amazing without spending a dime. I know many of you have been there starting from scratch, hustling with free tools, and leveraging creativity to grow.

Let s share our best tips, hacks, and stories! What free tools, platforms, or strategies have you used to launch or scale a project on a $0 budget? From no-cost marketing tactics to open-source software or scrappy growth hacks, spill the beans!

1. Effort results
I ve spent hours on posts that got 0 attention. I wrote my most viral post in 10 minutes while having morning coffee. You never know what will take off. Don't overthink it, just start writing and posting.
2. Don't be afraid to help competitors
Some people say building in public I only give my competitors an advantage. That's is partly true. At least 2 people reached out and said they built a similar product after my posts.
But first, this is great - the more the merrier, and the market is big enough for everybody.
Second, your real edge is not the tech you are using. It's the attention to the product you can generate. And social media is the only way to achieve it if you don't have millions for marketing.
3. Reddit hate is brutal
If your post has even a faint smell of promotion - people will hate you on Reddit. And when they do, they hate firecely. Expect a lot of angry DMs and downvotes.
4. Share your REAL struggles
The only way to avoid this and still get views, is being real. Share scary and cringy stuff. If you feel like you re gonna burn from shame after posting - it means you are posting the right thing.
5. Post on the right subs
Not all Reddit subs are equal. Most ban promotion posts. I always post on r/SideProject or r/SaaS. They are friendly to builders and your story will more likely resonate there.
6. Adjacent audiences rock
Some say builder subs are useless, because only your competitors hang out there. This is not true.
After my viral post on r/SaaS, I got a lot of leads for Yadaphone. Turned out many people on r/Saas and r/SideProject are freelancers, business owners and digital nomads. They all needed a cheap overseas call solution and I got a ton of new paying customers.
7. Not posting a link works
Avoid including a link to your product in Reddit posts. First, it s the quickest way to get banned for promotion. Second, if people like your product, they will google it, and it s a huge boost for SEO. Just share the name of the product in the post or wait until somebody asks for the link in the comments (somebody always does).
8. Non-native English is an advantage
This is a bonus for all non-native speakers out there. I used to push all my texts through ChatGPT to fix style and mistakes. And it only got me downvoted because people thought my texts were AI-generated.
Now I just write and post stuff as is. Making mistakes shows you are human, and Reddit values that over your perfect English
P.S. avoid the em dash at all costs, this is a clear sign you used AI (even if you didn t).

Building a team or want to join a startup?

Founders, teams, and startups drop a comment if you're hiring.

Designers, devs, marketers, operators drop a comment if you're looking.

Lately, I ve been reflecting on the quiet fear that, as AI tools become better at creating art, writing, and design, creativity itself might lose its meaning.

It feels like a valid concern because:

• AI can produce beautiful art and music faster than a human ever could,

• Many creative fields are shifting from original creation to "curating" or "editing" AI outputs,

• Instant generation often replaces slow, imperfect human exploration,

• Younger generations are growing up with AI co-creation as the norm, not the exception.

I wonder:
Will true creativity still matter when "good enough" is instantly available?

I feel like it would be pretty awesome to have a short video scrolling feature to discover the products that maybe could not make it to the top but have so much value.

Then even if your launch flopped you can redeem yourself by appearing in the feed of others.

I'm learning (slowly) about the importance of marketing your product. (I am probably one of todays 10,000 around guerrilla marketing)
So last night I hacked together https://purposefulpoop.com/ to see if it could drive some leads for my product.
I'm going to launch the playful tool next monday and use this thread to give a plot synopsis on how it all goes.

Prior to launch though, I'm curious if anyone has any feedback that might make the hook stronger?
I added (a poorly designed) OG image, so the shareable is at least somewhat tasteful:

What else am I missing?

Hi everyone, Gabe here! I lead curating Product Hunt's leaderboard.

First thing I will say is that if I could feature every single product that works, I would. I love supporting makers and demoing products. I actually try to test every single thing that gets hunted every day... which is A TON.  But I view our job as to surface the most interesting, novel, useful, and innovative products - daily. Now we may not always get it right, the process isn't perfect, but we're trying to do right by the community.

So, I ve been toying with the idea of going "Build in Public" for my startup, but I m torn. On one hand, it seems like an awesome way to grow an audience, get early feedback, and build trust. On the other, I ve seen plenty of people burn out or struggle to balance actually building vs. constantly sharing updates.

I guess my main questions are:
What s the best way to approach it without it feeling like a second job?
Where do you actually build in public: Twitter, LinkedIn, Reddit, PH, or somewhere else?
Any success (or horror) stories from those who ve done it?
