I think the main thing is just to engage and contribute to everyone here 😀

Do you already have such experience, or are you only assuming that it will be like that?
be brave and confident enough to share any idea
get connected with fellows here
Straight to the point: Engage with the community. Post comments, upvote products you dig, and don't be shy to ask questions. Check out successful launches for ideas. For your own launch, make sure it's polished.
@richarddi34 I recently received an opposite advice, that says do not to wait until it's polished. And release multiple times, every six months.
What do you think?
@richarddi34 @alexey_anshakov Polished not perfect, because if your product launch lacks the most important things like: being a good product, promo or presentation video, screenshots, etc. You will learn exactly that you needed those, instead of learning far more important things about your product.
Great question Alex.
I'd say the most important advice would be
- Dive into creating connections with community members, start by providing value by helping out other community members launching.
- Create connections via LinkedIn
@emmanuelonuoha Thanks. Is the significant part of your Ln contacts helping you on Product Hunt?
Good job Alex, coming to PH. PH would be more productive than any social media platform. And I’d say focus more on exploring new tools rather than just upvoting and commenting.
@therahulv I don't use any of the ones listed either because I also consider them useless. But the idea is clear.

>PH would be more productive than any social media platform.
Can you elaborate? What exactly? Studying tools implies finding a solution to an existing problem.
Thanks.
@alexey_anshakov if you spend time on PH , you’re more likely to get to know about new tools and apps. But if you spend the same about of time on Instagram, Facebook or tik tok , you won’t gain anything.
