@jontravens @jontravens I have put together a guide for launching on Product Hunt. Happy to help with more insider tips if you want. I have guided lots of Product Hunt launches, had 10+ N1 products of the day and 3 Golden Kitty awards.

We did a lot of activity before we launched. We had been preparing for almost a month. A few tips I would like to share - 1) Post across all your social media channels on the launch day and even if you are on other communities like Indie Hackers, Reddit, Startup School, etc. 2) Reach out to people in different Slack communities before the launch & even on the launch day. 3) Organise all the people you have been talking to about your launch in one single sheet. So that on D-day, it will be easier to inform them. 4) Create an upcoming page for people to subscribe to you before your launch, but if you're less than 1 week to launch - it won't as useful now. This was our upcoming page - https://www.producthunt.com/upco... 5) Find a hunter, it really helps. Though we didn't have one and we were still the #10 product of the day and managed to get around 100 upvotes. But the right hunter can help you even more. 6) Create your launch page & schedule it 2 days before launch. So you can revisit and make changes easily if required. 7) Schedule the launch for 12:01 AM PST or 1:31 PM IST. 8) Don't stress much, and just enjoy the rush.

Launch Day is always something that makes the tummy turn upside down. Here's one of my favorite blogs that gave me some ideas: https://compile.blog/product-hun... Although I am still away from the launch; am always gathering valuable resources. Hope this helps.

How did you prepare?
Here are 2 pieces of advice: 1. Engage on Twitter, DM people, and retweet people in advance and get your account active before the launch. We noticed that lots of traffic actually came from our Twitter presence during PH launch. 2. While you can aim for top 5, don't feel too much pressure from it. It's amazing if you get up there, but the expectation sometimes takes away from the excitement of this experience. You'll have the chance to launch again... and again... and again, so no sweat if it doesn't go the way you might expect it to.

@maxine_buchert Hi, Can you share a message format you used to dm them on twitter?

@ankita_singh14 My 2 cents would be to Engage with as many hunters as you can and drop your upcoming landing page so we all can keep an eye and wish you all the best for your launch :)
