Hi everyone, I've been an active part of this community for a long time (no joke, you can check the streak page ) So why do we love Product Hunt so much? I would like to summarize the reasons that come to my mind, and please share yours as well. Last Thursday, we launched Free Keyword Generator (https://adsby.co/free-keyword-ge...), which is a side project of our new brand Adsby, and it became the product of the day. If I were to summarize what contributions this community had during this launch: - Visitors from 103 different countries came to our site and tested our product.
- They provided excellent suggestions for improving the product. (There were really great suggestions, some of which we will definitely implement)
- They reported small bugs we hadn't noticed, allowing us to fix them promptly.
- We received over 300 comments, and most of these comments were so inspiring that they provided significant motivation for the new product we are developing (Adsby). In short, thanks to this wonderful community, as product developers, we've seen substantial contributions in terms of feedback and motivation on this challenging journey. On behalf of Adsby, I thank everyone who is part of this community and the PH team.
I ve been on Product Hunt for over 1,000 days, and honestly, when I first started, I had no strategy.
I knew I wanted to grow, but I didn t have a clear plan. I simply liked the platform, and that was enough motivation to spend time here. That time helped me recognise certain ways to build a personal brand on Product Hunt.
Yesterday, I came across a post saying that OpenAI projects a $14 billion loss in 2026. They ve gone through several funding rounds, offer monthly subscriptions, and are now planning to integrate ads into search results (which means another revenue stream).
Realistically, I don t think this loss will be covered in the short term, and profitability might only come over a longer horizon (if at all).
