Here are some top tips for planning your Product Hunt launch:
1. Pre-planning: Before you start, decide on your goals. What do you want to achieve with your launch?
Is it to be the top product of the day or reach a specific number of downloads?
2. Create a Timeline: Break your preparation into three phases:
- One Month Before Launch: Start getting ready. Make sure your landing page, product, and subscriber list are all set. Also, create a list of potential supporters who will upvote your product.
- One Week Before Launch: Fine-tune everything and check your progress.
- On Launch Day: Put your plan into action and keep an eye on the results.
Would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Great advice! One thing I'd add is to make sure your landing page and marketing materials are on point before launching. Having compelling copy, clean design, and a clear CTA can really boost signups. If writing isn't your strong suit, tools like Jasper.ai or ChatGPT can help refine your content. And don't neglect SEO - getting some quality backlinks pointing to your site can significantly improve your search rankings and organic traffic. Best of luck with your future launches!

Pre-launch support is so important! I didn’t realize how much upvotes mattered until I launched my first product.
