- add a Product Hunt badge to your website, so users can still upvote it - add more launches to your product to build your product portfolio
You can signup for Product Hunt's paid promotion.

@kaustumbh7 Any data on how effective this is vs other paid advertising channels?

@kaustumbh7 @vincentropy I'd ask PH about the average traffic from the mainpage or a newsletter. I remember that once when considering paid promotion we've asked PH about these metrics and they provided us with them!

@kaustumbh7 @aga_jaskiewicz Good point, I should probably just ask them directly. :)

@kaustumbh7 Unfortunately they're quite expensive
@etiene_dalcol That is correct

To have a successful product hunt launch you probably spent a lot of time engaging with the right communities. Both on PH and elsewhere. Just keep doing that. Find out where your users spend time and bring value to them.

@vincentropy Agreed! Right communities can give the product the leverage it needs.

This discussion space is a great way to promote the product after the PH launch. Just connect your product benefit with the question people are asking. Be transparent. Tell them that you are working for that company, but here is how it can help! It's a long-term game we have to play day by day.

1. Submit to directories 2. Sponsor newsletters 3. Promote on reddit and other communities

@karthik_tatikonda Reddit is still pretty tricky with such promotions. Any tip regarding it?

Yeah, it's a bit tricky @srimisra only. We tried replicating the viral posts and found success. So, we made a list of sub reddits and message templates you can try on reddit. https://launchpedia.co/post-idea...

@karthik_tatikonda That sounds promising. Thanks for the help, will surely look into it!

Partnerships, blogging, email outreach, podcast, and affiliates. Good to mix in a variety of things that can get immediate results, vs things that will bring traffic over time. We're going to launch on Product Hunt for the first time soon, but our product has been out for 5 years now and we've been doing the above to grow it.

By the way, can I add an existing product I've already made to PH?

Some things that helped us - Reach out to the community - Have the PH badge on your landing page - Start a discussion - Hold a webinar during the launch - Promote on social channels
