What are top 3 steps we should consider before launching a product on Product Hunt?

I think it is the following: 1) Do you have a community that you can launch "with." If you want a faster way of starting ot build the community, I do recommend trying out Product Hunt Ship. I used it when I launched AtomPay and it was super useful! 2) Do you have the proper screenshots to add to your image gallery? This is huge!! 3) Don't underestimate twitter. Start talking about your product on Twitter and marketing this at least 2-3 weeks prior to your product hunt launch!

1) Have a small group of supporters who are willing to support your launch and advocate for your product. 2) Split your email list into segments and send it throughout the day. 3) Choose the perfect launch day based on your targets.
