Best moment to launch?

What is the best moment to launch a product on Product Hunt? Once the product has some traction, or when it is still an MVP in its first iterations. What do you think and why?

My first impression is that it is better to launch as soon as possible. It means when you have a very basic MVP. We all need feedback and iterate fast.

MVP, Gather feedback and improve, build community around it and show that you care...

We plan to launch with our MVP, but it will be interesting to hear the opinions of others! I've noticed that people relaunch their products after significant updates sometimes. It would be interesting to read how it all turns out too šŸ¤”

Tuesday is the best day for launching

@gukras yeah Tuesdays are better if you want a lot of traffic, not if you want to become the product of the day necessarily

@ruben_boonz But you have also more competence. Is there any corelation between more traffic and more launches? May be other day has a better relation.

Tuesday seems to be the favorite day to launch. More traffic on Product Hunt and more reactions. But it also means more products to vote for on tuesday. We are more likely to choose wednesday to launch our Sweego, our notification platform for developers :)
