I've been experimenting with it as I am relatively new to PH in general. So far we have around 60 followers of our Ship page. We plan to launch a free tool on May 2nd which is a feature we are spinning out of a bigger development initiative. So our idea is to generate users with the free tool and hopefully build interest for the bigger launch when that date comes (Late Summer). If you want to see our upcoming launch page for our Brand Builder tool, visit here www.producthunt.com/upcoming/adi...
It's free and sort of fun so follow along!
Hey Kate! We use Ship (https://www.producthunt.com/upco...) . However, we haven't seen any results so far. Maybe it's because we're using the unpaid version.
@katerina_kurshina To be honest, we are not considering it. In this discussion I made a couple of months ago (https://www.producthunt.com/disc...) some makers expressed that even though it drove some traffic to their website at first, it wasn't as useful as they expected. However, it's up to you and your goals. Also, some people say it's not expensive; so maybe trying it out wouldn't hurt so much :) let me know what you end up doing!
Hi Kate. Thanks for the interesting question :) We also recently launched our upcoming page https://www.producthunt.com/upco.... Purchased a Pro subscription. However, I can't say yet whether it's good or bad. I don’t see any rapid results in the growth of the number of subscribers yet.
"We have launched our Upcoming page to raise awareness and collect emails before the Launch. It's also one of our most important sources of traffic. Pay money to advertise it so that it appears on the next page. I am still unsure if it is highly cost-effective; certainly, it will depend upon the quantity of traffic it generates for our website.
