Product Hunt
Product Hunt is a website where people launch new tech products each day, and the community votes and comments on them.
The homepage runs on a 24-hour day in Pacific time, so many makers launch at 12:01 am Pacific to get the full day. Product Hunt's own launch guide tells makers to ask for feedback, not upvotes.
A launch brings a burst of visitors for a day or two, mostly other makers. Treat it as one event, not your whole plan. Build a waitlist first, build in public in the weeks before, tell your email list on the day, and send visitors to a clear landing page. Launch on Product Hunt with your first comment ready.
