... tech. Identify a problem and share your perspective on it. Create a list of ideas you can come back to later. Reuse older topics and update them with new information. Some of them are too obvious, but trust me, when you are paralysed, you have a hard time recalling these. How do you come up with topics

... know this topic has been here a million times (and people will still ask me a few more times after that). I personally see advantages in both cases, but maybe one more advantage when it comes to launching during the week. Very briefly: Launching during the week  strongest days (Tue, Wed, Thurs) More people see your product (but higher competition) Higher traffic to your page if you are featured Launching during the weekend Sat, Sun Higher chance of getting ... ... Product Hunt scheduling on individual days and what suits you more with your product launch.

... launched products and a badge. But this is a long-term game. When I take into account all the activities that are behind your own positioning, it is sometimes a part-time job. You have to: Come up with topics for the forums. Participate in discussions in the forums if you have something to contribute. Test people's products and give them feedback. Support launches. Respond to messages on other networks. And that's every single day. Many of these ... ... with the fact that you are willing to do it seriously long-term.

... billboards and bus stops. Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @byalexai , probably you were a better target audience for them than I was. I noticed Bolt new, but n8n not so much. :D BTW, Lovable also had a big hackathon, but there was some struggle with winners (or at least people didn't perceive them as the strong competition) :D Comment from Tetiana(@tetianai): @byalexai  Now I m curious to see their ads. Either I don t notice them ... ... templates blow me over with their usefulness. Comment from Aleksandar Blazhev(@byalexai): For me, the top 2 this year were definitely @bolt.new and @n8n . Bolt literally took over our feeds back in the spring because of that massive hackathon

... send it raw data (chat logs, onboarding forms, CRM records, game events) and it would return structured profile information and summaries you could plug into your existing tools. That was useful, but the more I talked to indie hackers and founders building agents, the clearer one thing became: They didn t just want profiles over there in some API . They wanted their AI agents to "actively use" those profiles in every conversation. So I rebuilt GetProfile as an LLM proxy ... ...

Extracts It uses LLM analysis to extract structured traits (like expertise level, tone preference, interests) and important memories (events, milestones, recurring topics

... founders. So I was wondering if you, as founders , are also building your brand. If so: Which platform is key for you? How much time do you actually spend on social media vs. creating a product? What are your proven hacks for building a personal brand? As for me, it helps a lot to reply often, but then I spend less time creating something. And on socials, I am around 3 hours. :D OK, maybe more. Comment from Nika(@busmark ... ... feels like I am at the beginning :) Keep going :) Comment from Katie(@parentformfiller): Finding this really insightful - I was spending 2-3hs a day pre launch but not getting much out of it. We have a pretty dry topic

Any advice, especially about communities, early adopter channels, or unique marketing hacks, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for sharing your wisdom!

... most trustworthy source of information. However, I have found that paid sources tend to be the better ones. For me: The Economist The Financial Times TechCrunch I get a lot of inspiration from here on the Product Hunt forums (topics) Which source of information do you think is worth following?

... media platform are you growing as a founder, and in which industry is your product? Comment from Sanskar Yadav(@sanskarix): You're absolutely right, Reddit tested my patience more than anything in the world. But I do have some hacks that are working right now: Build your karma before you even think of leveraging it for marketing The easiest way to do it is to trigger some emotions. This depends on the type of community, too. understand the type ... ... short. I always have so much to say lol. Do hashtags even work? I need to do a crash course on X I guess. Comment from Ansh Deb(@ansh_deb): @jonayed_tanjim  Ah ok interesting. So a quick hack

... real discussions and problem-solving threads. If your brand gets mentioned naturally in those conversations, then yes, AI tools may start surfacing your name more often. But it s not something you can just hack. Redditors don t like self promotion and AI doesn t give extra weight just because you posted. It s more about community trust and real discussions. So for me, Reddit is useful, but more as a place to build credibility and conversations rather than ... ... yesterday. What actually matters is if ppl are already talking about that brand or topic

... Alexander Alkor(@arthen_factory): it's a VERY important topic! such "brainrots" really kill our brains. and I'm so happy to know that going outdoor helps you;) But as for me... I try to make even my "brainrot" content useful somehow. For example, instead of just scrolling, I read Reddit about things like alternative history or complex game lores (like Warhammer 40k). It has the effect of "dopamine hacking

Following up with the launch on other platforms and highlighting the previous success on Product Hunt. Basically, with each event, you re creating content and keeping the conversation around the occasion alive for a longer period of time. P.S. It s a good idea to post Product Hunt-related topics

... just another human trying to figure things out. - - - What completely failed: 1/ Small directory launches. Tried submitting to niche SaaS directories and random launch sites. Almost no clicks, no conversions. Pretty much wasted hours. 2/ Hacker News launch.... brutal, got 1 upvote and disappeared. Not every channel is for everyone. Right now...

Holding off on ads and cold email until ... ... this is my saas Comment from Theo Crewe-Read(@theo_crewe_read): Super super useful info, I'm very grateful you took the time to post all of this! I'm particularly interested in the building in public topic

... full product review recently and within days ChatGPT was quoting it. Again, see image below. Reddit + Quora replies matter . Jumping into the right forums and conversations gets picked up so you need to produce content AND reply to open topics in your domain area. Wikipedia is powerful, but tricky . You need notable online coverage to get approval by Wiki moderators to have a page about your company/product, which again comes back to press. We're close to our page going ... ... much as AI leaning on sources it already trusts. The hard part right now is telling what s real signal vs. coincidence when you test week to week. Feels like the wins come from steady authority building, not quick hacks

... about building ecosystems. Multiple companies in India have taken initiatives with the govt. support. Even OneHash was a part of some of these initiatives. Hosting public events and workshops to spread awareness for startups, running youth programs and hackathons, sponsoring incubators and labs, launching various grants for colleges and smaller teams, partnering with universities and funding research, and even tax rebates and easier registrations for startups are being promoted right now.

... know how it used to be. Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @olga_scry  To be honest, the hype faded. I think it is a good social network, but atm it is more about politics topics and there are fewer "buildinpublic" friends :/ Comment from Alex Cloudstar(@alexcloudstar): I still think build in public is worth it, but only when it goes beyond numbers. When people share just MRR, it feels like flexing. But when they add context like what ... ... alive, but it needs to shift more toward lessons and less toward vanity stats.
