Building a team or want to join a startup? #MayThe4thBeWithYou

Founders, teams, and startups drop a comment if you're hiring.

Personally, I believe (and still stand by it) that there are no shortcuts to success, only well-thought-out and applied tactics.

What marketing tactics for a successful product hunt launch have worked for you or grabbed your attention immediately?

Got a launch coming up? Don t go in blind share your upcoming Product Hunt launch here and get early feedback from fellow makers.

Whether you want thoughts on your:

• Tagline or messaging

• Screenshots or video

• First comment

• Timing or strategy

One of the common questions I get is How often can you publish a product on Product Hunt?

The guidelines state this clearly:

"You can launch as often as you have new significant product iterations available."

By engagement, I mean upvotes, comments, shares basically anything that helps your product get to the top of the voting.

Do you have an overview of which tactics were most effective in this regard?

If you made it to the Pitch by Deel Paris finals, you ve got a special Product Hunt launch day waiting for you.

We ve partnered with Deel to give finalists a dedicated chance to launch, get discovered, and show the community what they ve built.

If that s you, submit your launch by Sunday at midnight PST and make sure to add the tag pitch-paris.

It s almost here for me. In three days, I ll be relaunching a major update for the app I have been collaborating with, and I ve set clear boundaries for myself about what I will and won t do before the launch. I guess these are some general, unwritten rules I try to follow

Definitely DON T:

• Accept offers from charlatans promising votes or engagement for money

• Send unsolicited messages begging for votes or support

• Spam other people s posts with launch announcements

In about 17 days (I hope I m counting correctly), I ll be re-launching the mobile app, and now I m wondering how much the Product Hunt community will try it out.

I spend 100% of my time on a desktop on this platform.

But the majority of the population is mobile-only.
