Hello
If I submit a product on Friday, will it be included among the products on that day or it will be scheduled for the next day (Saturday)?
How does timezone affect this?
Thanks

Hi,
The best time to launch
For makers who donβt have any constraints or urgencies, a rule of thumb is to schedule your launch for 12:01am PST. This is due to the simple logistics of our website. The homepage runs on a 24-hour cycle based on Pacific Standard Time. Posting at 12:01am PST gives people a full 24 hours to view your product. Keep in mind you can schedule your post up to 1 month ahead.

So if you launch at 12:01 am PST on Friday you have the whole Friday (24 hours).

I usually shoot for the 12:01 AM PST launch to maximize the full 24-hour cycle on the home page. Sometimes I'll promote it a bit beforehand on social media to build anticipation. And definitely take advantage of the option to schedule your launch up to a month in advance - that's clutch for planning! π
