Any suggestions or insights to be featured by the Product Hunt?

Question

Hi PH community, we plan to launch a new AI product in a few weeks on Product Hunt. I believe the first step to becoming the top product of the day or week is to get featured on the launching day. I couldn't find any obvious pattern of how PH selects feature products from my observation. Any suggestions or insights on that?

Thank you SO much!

1. Schedule the launch a few weeks before.
2. Contact a well-known hunter to hunt your product. You should also do it few weeks beforehand. 
3. Grow a following in PH or other social medias. Share you lunch with them and ask for their support.

Hope this helps.

Make sure your product provides something special or finds a creative solution to a problem. The community on Product Hunt has a penchant for unique and creative concepts.

Cultivate Expectancy Before your formal Product Hunt launch, create buzz and build anticipation by teasing the introduction of your product on social media and other relevant channels.
