I'm curious: what happened to your product after your Product Hunt launch?

Question

Ghulam Abbas · Accepted Answer

Last month I launched SkyConvert but not got featured.
After waiting 5 hours I sent mail to support team.

Support team replied:
Hi Ghulam,
﻿Every day, hundreds of new products are submitted to Product Hunt. Unfortunately, not everything can be featured on the homepage, which is the case with your post.
﻿All submitted products are visible in the All Feed.
------------------------
We launched Romo AI on March 1st (Featured after 5 hours of launch) Secured top 3rd product of the day.

Jonni Gani · Answer

My product was hunted by someone else. At the time I knew almost nothing about Product Hunt and I wasn't present for the launch.

I didn't have elaborate analytics in place, so this is anecdotal, but I'm pretty sure my non insignificant MRR jump was caused by the PH post.

@abbas143official Ghulam I have seen you around since day 1! You are so active here - nice new profile pic!

Rihab Zaidi · Answer

@abbas143official that's impressive! What did you learn from your first launch and how did use that to make the second one more successful?

Luca Micheli · Answer

The first 3 times we launched we have seen a few signups. The Video live chat brought in constant signups for months but none actually converted. I hope for this new launch we can see something different: https://www.producthunt.com/post...

Great topic for discussion!

I'm also interested in learning more about the sales figures of the products that are featured and highly ranked.

Is it just buzz or are products getting actual benefits out of it?

Ghulam Abbas · Answer

@rihab_zd Social reach out and community engagement is key to success.

@rohanrajpal thank you for sharing your experience. It’s very insightful. One more question - did you promote your PH launching somewhere else except Reddit and Hackernews?
