🚀 3 Months of Reddit Marketing — Lessons from a Total Beginner
Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m part of the marketing team at @Lumi.new, and three months ago, my teammate and I — total Reddit newbies — decided to experiment with Reddit as a growth channel. Since then, we’ve gone viral, got removed by mods, and learned a ton. 😅 Here’s a summary of what actually worked (and what didn’t) 👇 ✅ Launch-style posts worked surprisingly well We targeted subreddits where our...
#5 on Product Hunt with zero top hunter support — was it luck or strategy? 🤔
🚀 We launched @Lumi.new on Product Hunt last week — ended the day at #5 of the day. Not the #1 you often see here, but for us as a small indie team, it felt like a big win. Here’s what we learned along the way: 1. No “top hunter”? Still possible. We didn’t have a top hunter submit our product. As a result, the first hours were really quiet. Visibility was low and it felt discouraging. But once...
🚀 From #6 to #5 in the last 10 minutes — Lumi.new’s first Product Hunt launch!
🚀 What a ride! Yesterday we launched Lumi.new on Product Hunt — and just 1 hour later, we were featured. After 24 hours, Lumi reached: ✨ 219 points ✨ 304 new followers ✨ Day Rank #5 In the last 10 minutes, we almost thought we’d stay at #6… but we pushed forward and made it one step higher. That small win felt huge for us, especially since it was our very first launch on Product Hunt. 🎉 What is...
🎉 From anxiety to Featured in 1 hour! 🚀
🌟 What a rollercoaster! As one of the team members behind Lumi.new, I’ll admit — during the first hour after launch, the upvotes were few and I felt pretty anxious. But to our surprise, Lumi was selected as Product Hunt’s Daily Featured right after. 🎉 It was such an encouraging reminder that persistence pays off — where there’s a will, there’s a way. 💪 Lumi is an all-in-one no-code platform...
What new features did you add to your project recently?
I’m always curious about the projects people here are working on, so I thought I’d kick things off by sharing mine. I’m building Lumi.new — an AI builder that lets you create custom apps or websites just by chatting. No rigid steps, no templates. You describe what you want, and Lumi spins up the whole thing — from UI to database to auth — all in one flow. At the same time, I submitted some new...
Young makers & indie hackers — what are you building?
Hey Product Hunt 👋 Curious to see what other young makers, students, and indie hackers are building right now! Always love seeing side projects and early-stage apps come to life 🚀 For me: I’m working on lumi.new with some friends — an AI coding assistant that lets you make apps and websites just by chatting. Still super early, but learning tons and excited to connect with others in the same...
