Today marks my 1 0 0 0 day streak in on product hunt - wow does time fly
The last 2.7 years have been insane From discovering awesome products (built by SF legends) to actually launching 2 products myself and winning 2x product of the month awards a golden kitty with @Clustr and now being nominated for an orbit award with @Trace feels unreal. Not only did my team go through the ups and downs, but we persevered and survived two top tier accelerators with @500 Startups & @Y Combinator - gotta catch them all
Last night I opened LinkedIn for a moment, and at that moment, someone wrote to me who is going to relaunch a product after a year and a half. (Yes, I do not have anything to work on Friday night, don't blame me, I do not have a social life) :D
Needless to say, a lot has changed on this platform in a year.
Yesterday, @pamela_arienti mentioned that her Product Hunt launch ended up somewhere in the middle, and one of the main lessons for her is that the connections gained on the platform are much more important than the placement.
Today, I am co-organising my first hackathon in my country, and I will give a talk to the participants about Product Hunt as one of the ways to distribute a product.
Some participants may hear about the platform for the first time, and I would like to encourage them a little in building and launching products.
Launching this week? Want even more coverage? Drop your best pitch in the replies for a chance to be covered in the Leaderboard newsletter which goes out to ~500K people
I've been contributing to discussions every single day for over 3 years now, and sometimes it's really hard.
One day, I have a great time coming up with topics, and then there are those days when I just stare at the screen and can't type. But I always manage to find a way.
Product Hunt 4.0 for Mobile is faster, simpler, and more informative. The was rewritten from scratch, available on iOS and (finally!) Android. Enjoy. 😸
