Hey PH community! It’s been around 2 weeks since our launch on Product Hunt for Edily. https://www.producthunt.com/posts/edily and we are so grateful for all the support the community provided. This was our first launch, and most of our support was from within product hunt. Here are some tips/ lessons: 1. Be very active on product hunt - A lot of people say that just having a famous hunter hunt your product is enough, but after spending quite a while on PH and analysing the different products that end up on top- this is just an added benefit not something that would make / break your launch. Being active though will definitely be the make/break- be on the community portal, provide support to other launches and build relationships outside! 2. Do reach out to your own network- ultimately your personal network will also definitely come through, and they will be very helpful especially for meaningful comments. 3. The comments vs upvotes battle- I think you really should work more towards upvotes if the goal is to be on the top, but feedback in the form of comments is a great way to improve a product in the early stages! Thanks again for the support! Feel free to drop any launch related queries🙌🏼

Thanks for the insights Annie! It's always a battle between if you want votes or feedback (of course, ideally both 😅) - what I would like to know was what did you gain post-launch? Was it mainly great feedback, did you convert a lot of people into customers, how has your brand exposure been since?
Annie Chopra
@carolmoh i guess the biggest benefit post launch was the seo advantage and the feedback, many people gave different pieces of advice! It also started more conversation within our own communities about the product

I've seen your product, and it's fantastic! I've already given it an UPVOTE. Today, I also launched my product, and I hope you'll like it as well.| https://www.producthunt.com/post...

Hanna from Niceboard
Great insights! It's really a bit of a game, but in the end also a great way to connect to possible users, get feedback from various different people and even find some new cool products (even if they are your competitors on the launch day...). Would love to get your support on our NICEBOARD launch! Did you start any group discussions on your launch day?
Annie Chopra
@hanna_ will definitely be checking it out Hanna and yes, I started about 3 haha
