Hi Product Hunt! 👋 I’m Shubin, and I’ve spent the last few months obsessed with a single, painful question: Why does it feel so lonely to launch something great? As makers, we pour our hearts into our products. We spend late nights perfecting pixels and debugging code. But when we finally hit "Publish," we’re often met with silence. Not because the product isn't good, but because we aren't marketers—we’re builders. I’ve lived through that "launch day void," spending 40+ hours manually hunting for directories and blogs, feeling like I was shouting into an empty room while my real work sat untouched. I built PublishRoad to be the companion every founder needs on that day. We call it PublishRoad because every product has a unique path to its audience, but that path is often overgrown with noise and outdated lists. We wanted to build a "GPS for distribution"—something that doesn't just give you a generic map, but actually understands the terrain of your specific niche. What makes this personal for me: It’s about Time: Distribution shouldn’t be a 40-hour research project. It should be a 2-minute conversation with an AI that "gets" your vision. It’s about Clarity: We don't just dump links; we find where your "crowd" actually lives—whether that's a niche SaaS directory or a specific industry blog. It’s about Growth: Seeing your first 100 users find you because you posted in the right place is a feeling I want every indie hacker to experience. A Gift for the PH Community: To celebrate our launch, I’m offering one free curation for everyone who joins us today. I want to help you find your road. Building this has been a journey of its own, and I’d love to hear yours. What was the hardest part of your last launch? I’ll be here all day to chat, listen, and help you find your first users! 🚀

Content distribution is more important than content creation!!!!

We spend 20 hours writing a masterpiece and 20 minutes sharing it. I m convinced the "build it and they will come" mentality is the fastest way to fail in 2026.

I m building PublishRoad to flip that script, but I want to know: What is the one distribution "hack" or channel that actually works for you right now? Is SEO dead, or are we just doing it wrong?

Why is distribution still the hardest part of building?

"Most founders (myself included) spend 90% of their time building and 10% on distribution, but it should probably be the other way around. I built PublishRoad to bridge that gap by using AI to find the best launch sites and backlink opportunities in under 2 minutes.

I d love to know: What s your biggest struggle when it comes to getting those first 1,000 users?"
