The new Product Hunt Launch Guide is live!

Hey everyone 👋

Our old launch guide was getting pretty outdated. Lots of things changed since it was written: the submission flow, the scheduling rules, how points work, and more. So we rebuilt it from scratch.

The new Launch Guide lives in our Help Center and is split into 8 short articles, so it’s easier to find what you need and easier for us to keep up to date:

1. How Product Hunt works

2. What kind of products get featured

3. Set your goals and pick your launch date

4. Build your product page

5. How to promote your launch (and what to avoid)

6. What to do during and after your launch

7. Relaunch your product

8. Launch FAQ and myths

You can see the whole thing here: Launch Guide

It covers the new submission flow step by step, with screenshots. It also covers what we look for when featuring, how to promote without breaking the rules, and some myths we hear all the time.

Now we need your help. You’re the ones launching, so you know better than anyone what’s confusing or missing:

• Is there anything you wish you knew before your first launch that isn’t in the guide?

• Any questions you keep seeing from other makers that we should answer?

Drop your thoughts in the comments. We read everything and we’ll keep updating the guide based on what you share.

Happy launching! 🚀
