Yes, hashtags on LinkedIn still matter, especially if you're trying to grow your audience. Including a few relevant hashtags can help the LinkedIn algorithm categorize your content better so it reaches the right people. Just don't go overboard - 3-5 well-chosen hashtags is plenty. Focus on hashtags specific to your niche or industry for best results.
Are hashtags on LinkedIn still relevant?

Not validating product ideas early enough is a huge one. Spending months building something without deeply understanding the market need and getting real user feedback. Gotta ship fast, learn, and iterate based on actual customer insights vs operating in a vacuum.

Nice feature list! Loving the SEO and markdown support. Just wondering--does the dark mode automatically sync with system settings? Also, how customizable is the syntax highlighting? Anyway, best of luck with the launch!

Just starting my fundraising process. Would love to connect with other founders who are currently raising or recently closed a round to swap tips and lessons learned. I'm targeting a $2M seed round, mainly from angels and micro VCs. Hit me up if you're open to chatting!
Founders - who is fundraising?

Looks like a super handy platform! Just took a quick look, and the idea of cutting down on setup time is great. Will definitely be checking out some of those boilerplates. Congrats on the launch!

Hey @techwithtobi, this looks like something I've been looking for! Simple but very useful for grabbing color palettes quickly. One question tho - does it support extracting gradients too? That would be a game-changer for me. Thanks!

Definitely! Building a pre-launch audience on Product Hunt can give you a big boost. Some things to try: 1) Create a killer coming soon page to build buzz 2) Share content related to your product on social media and link to your PH coming soon page 3) Encourage your followers/fans to follow your PH page. The more traction you get pre-launch, the higher you can rank when you do launch!
Is it important to build a presence on Product Hunt before launching?

I limit focus time to strict 25min pomodoros. Silent phone in another room, close all unneeded browser tabs/apps, website blockers on. Helps me stay laser focused in short bursts! Also regular mini digital detoxes - totally offline for a day or two to reset and recharge.
What’s your secret for staying productive in an increasingly noisy digital world?

Launch is just the beginning! Definitely stay engaged with your users - keep sharing updates, requesting feedback, and incorporating their suggestions. Building that community around your product is key. Also consider some post-launch marketing like sponsoring relevant newsletters, blogs, or podcasts to get more eyeballs. The momentum comes from continuously delivering value to your users and...
How did you keep the momentum going post-launch?

I'm loving AZ Recorder for easily recording my screen on mobile. It has a super simple interface and gives you a lot of control over the recording quality and format. Definitely recommend checking it out if you need a reliable screen recorder app!

Definitely managing your own mindset and motivation. Especially in the early days when it's a rollercoaster, you have to be your own biggest cheerleader. Finding little wins to celebrate and ways to recharge is key to avoiding burnout. Staying optimistic through the lows is a real skill!

!Hola! Si, una herramienta de traduccion de idiomas seria muy util aqui en Product Hunt. Muchos productos tienen descripciones solo en ingles, pero la comunidad es global. Poder traducir al idioma preferido de cada uno haria los productos mas accesibles. Tal vez se podria integrar algo como Google Translate o DeepL para que al hacer clic en un boton se traduzca automaticamente la pagina. O dar...

Congrats on the launch! PennyMeal sounds like a really useful tool, especially for someone who struggles with meal planning. Can't wait to see what features you add next. Quick question though--do you plan on adding support for more specific dietary needs, like low-FODMAP or ketogenic diets? Thanks!

@yacine_yassir Hey! This mockup pack is exactly what I needed for my streetwear designs. Quick question though, do the templates work smoothly in Procreate as well as Illustrator? I mainly use Procreate and want to make sure there won't be any issues.

Video quality matters for sure! A few key things to optimize for better performing video ads:
- Use engaging thumbnail images to capture attention
- Keep videos short and to the point (15-30 seconds is ideal for social ads)
- Use captions since many watch without sound
- Test different creative elements like music, voice overs, text overlays etc to see what resonates
- Analyze viewer retention...
Any performance marketers here working with video ads?

Definitely A/B testing different lead gen forms/flows to see what converts best for your audience. Offering a strong lead magnet like an ebook, discount code, free trial etc in exchange for contact info still works well. Retargeting site visitors with ads is also super effective for lead gen if you have the budget for it. But yeah, it's a lot of trial and error to dial in what resonates with...
What are the best practices of collecting qualified leads?!

Started doing some freelance graphic design work on the side last year and it's been great! Not quite enough to quit my day job yet, but it provides a nice extra income stream and lets me be creative in a different way from my 9-5. Anyone else here doing design or creative side hustles?
How many of you have a side hustle?
