I didn't know that according to PH rules, you can't release updates in products more often than once in 3 months. Well, you can, but your product/update won't be featured on the main page. For this reason, the new product by MacPaw wasn't featured on the main page for 5 hours after launch (even though we had more upvotes than most of the top products on the main page). Because two months before that launch we released another product on PH. So I had to reach out to the PH support team and explain that we had released an absolutely new product (it's important to have a separate website to prove this). Luckily, they understood the situation and put our product on the main page. But we lost precious time!
