Does Product of the Day still make sense for your product exposure?

I am a newcomer to Product Hunt, searching for answers to questions that many other newcomers might find interesting. Every day a product deserves to be the Product of the Day BUT to find the results of this achievement is another challenge... Unfortunately, there are only a few insights I have gained through this forum. So please, if you are a winner of the Product of the Day (or your product is on the top of the list), please share.

How much traffic did you acquire and how did it impact your growth?

My insight: The products that were launched during the weekends are less likely to get the Product of the Week and even not possible to get the Product of the Month.
