The sad story of NOT being featured on Product Hunt😔

This is my second time launching on Product Hunt.
The first time, my product was featured on the homepage, and I've had great results from the start.
I even hosted a webinar to share how I reached the #5 position (let me know if you want the presentation).
But this time, it's different. I reached out to the support team but haven't received a response. I always follow the rules, so I'm feeling disappointed, to be honest.

Its sad, I launched today and my product didn't get featured. I followed all the rules and created my launch 1 week in advance. Inspite of not getting features, we have very good number of upvotes. I feel very sad, put so much effort into the launch.

There is always a little luck involved with everything in life! Remember that you'll always get some exposure even if your launch doesn't pan out the way you'd hoped! Keep building!!
@jonwesselink Sure. Even if it's not exactly a matter of luck in this case :)
so sad :( I hope your launch will be featured soon. many products are getting featured after hours of launch.
This is sad :(

What does it mean to be featured? Like after you launch or before you launch?
Also thanks for sharing your experience!
Launching soon!
Hey there, I can totally understand how frustrating it must be not to get the spotlight you were hoping for on Product Hunt. It sounds like you put a lot of effort into following the guidelines and reaching out for help, so it's a bummer not to see the same success as last time. Keep your chin up though, every launch is a learning experience! Maybe this setback will just be a plot twist in your success story 😉 Remember, the PH community is always here to support you, even if the homepage feature eludes us this time around. Hang in there!
i feel so bad for you
How does one get featured on the homepage? By being upvoted enough?
I personally think it is nice that people also share their less successful stories, and I do wish you still get the best out of this experience💪🏼
Ps the product is great😉
Hi! I supported your product 😊 We are all here to support each other!
Positive vibes 💫
