I've heard that the best time to launch on PH is around 12:01am PST on Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday to maximize visibility that day. Def post as a new product rather than an update to rank higher. Make sure to prep your team to engage in the discussions too for more traction!
Time is of course 12:01 AM. As suggested by Product Hunt itself.
But the day depends. If you have a huge audience, make it on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. But if you Don't have a huge audience to support, make it on Saturday or Sunday. So that your product lands on top
@shayan_ali_bakhsh thanks for advice. We select Sunday as the launch day. let's support each other! https://www.producthunt.com/prod...
I've heard that the best time to launch on Product Hunt is right after midnight PST on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Apparently products launched then tend to get more visibility and upvotes compared to other times. But curious what others have experienced - have certain launch times worked better for you in terms of getting featured?
I usually launch on Thursdays around 11am PT / 2pm ET. Gives enough time for the US crowd to see it that day, and carries over strong into Friday which is still a solid day. Weekends are too slow for launching IMHO, unless you have an existing audience to drive immediate activity.
