Coming Soon page helps?
I am yet to setup a coming soon page for my product. How effective is it? What kind of notifications(email, inapp) it sends out to people who subscribes?

Coming Soon page is an excellent way to generate buzz.

A well-crafted 'Coming Soon' page can build anticipation. Integrating AI for user engagement might be a game-changer.

Absolutely, a 'Coming Soon' page can be a game-changer for your product's launch on Product Hunt. Here are some quick tips:
Boost Visibility: Use this page to increase your product's visibility. Engage actively on Product Hunt to build anticipation.
AI Engagement: Consider integrating AI tools on your page for unique user engagement.
Distinct Design: Go for a unique, non-corporate design that aligns with your product's vibe.
Leverage Notifications: Utilize the page's notification feature to alert subscribers on launch day.
Community Engagement: Engage with the PH community, comment on other launches, and be active in discussions.
Gather Feedback: Use this opportunity to gather early feedback and support.
Tease Your Vision: Showcase a sneak peek of what's coming to pique interest.
Track Interest: Monitor the number of subscribers to gauge launch day interest.
Hope this helps! Best of luck with your launch! đ"
@neelptl2602 @remilittle @nixkulinax confirmed it is and it's honestly the least authentic thing i've seen on product hunt. pretty gross.
For sure, you have a month before the launch to get people to follow the page, so it massively ups your visability
@dzaitzow makes sense. Comparing to a category while doing above would also help people get a reference. Would make use of that.
Absolutely! Check Harryâs coming soon page that gained over 100k emails in a week.
@neelptl2602 Canât paste the link here, unfortunately. But you can type on Google âHarryâs coming soon pageâ - it will give you relevant info
Yes, it gives us a fantastic window to boost the visibility. By getting people to follow the page during this time, you can create significant anticipation for your upcoming launch.
@neelptl2602 I dont recommend using some corporate vibe template from Webflow or framer etc. Go nerdy and hacker vibe. Or if you want to use a ton of money on it. Go with something like hu.ma.ne or cosmos.so. (these websites are anti-corporate-vibe and has lots of vision built in) As an example of the cheaper way to make a teaser site. I'm just drafting a book on AI assisted coding (while i'm learning it my self đ) And to validate if there is an audience willing to pay down the line. I added a visitor ticker to it (http://visitorbadge.io). Very low fidelity teaser / landing / test page: https://gist.github.com/eonist/2... (I might never release this book, but at least it 0.5k people read it ÂŻ\_(ă)_/ÂŻ already)
@anna_kasumova awesome. Iâll have a look.
Any tips on making the best use of coming soon page?
I am already getting feedback and support before launch so yes it's very effective!
@mark_amouzgar yes but there are other ways to do it as well.

@neelptl2602 What other ways do you mean? Because you want the Product Hunt community to be prepared for your launch, and this way they can get to know your product before it's officially launched! Just create the 'Coming Soon' page and share it with the Product Hunt community on LinkedIn and here. This will mean less work for you on launch day because you've already captured attention for your launch and they will get notified as you launch!
I think it is effective. I have launched previous products without "Coming soon", but I am planning to release new product now, I have created a waiting page
It will be interesting to compare
@maksym_skrypka hey! Could you please share the result? I see that EyeYoga
performed better than the previous launches, do you think coming soon has helped? :)
I think the coming soon page is work for garthering a group of people who have some sense and expectations for ur product, they may deepen the impact as you interact with them later. And when you officially launch they will come back and show some support.
100% sure! You have more visibility on PH, so engaging with other users, commenting on launches, etc will be more powerful!
@neelptl2602
1. Ask your 'supporters' to click on the Notify me button once the coming soon page is live.
2. Interact with other users in the discussions section, under products launches, so they can see your badge.
No, you are required to launch on the date you've chosen, regardless of who may decide to join you on that day. Consider the possibility that a large company decides to join your launch day â in that case, you won't be able to change the date.
@kinzarra thatâs a great perspective. How would you know if large company decides to join anyway? I mean, is there a way to know beforehand?
Yes! People who click "Notify me" know about your launch and product, so I would say it helps a lot
@mycelebs_elle notifies on email?

A Coming Soon page helps build excitement, collect contact information, manage user expectations, and promote upcoming offerings or changes. It's a versatile tool for various types of websites and projects.
Yes, it is a wonderful opportunity for us to increase visibility. You may build up a lot of excitement for your approaching launch by encouraging people to follow the page during this period.
@gayle_palmer do you have any specific pointers that can help maximise visibility?
@yolanda_porter do you have any specific pointers that can help maximise visibility?
I think it does help to build visibility and also track how many people (roughly) to expect on the launch day:)
