I’ve found that creating eye-catching visuals really makes a difference. High-quality images and videos that show your product in action can help people quickly understand what you're offering and why it’s worth their time.
Timing Your Launch Right: Launching on a Tuesday or Wednesday morning seems to be effective. It’s when there’s usually a lot of traffic on Product Hunt, which can help your product gain more visibility.

Spot-on advice! Clear messaging is key. Your headline, images, and description should make it immediately obvious what your product does, who it's for, and why it's awesome. Show, don't just tell. Visuals, gifs, and videos can bring your product to life. And get the community buzzing before launch day to generate momentum and early upvotes. Engage on social, in comments, and with hunters to keep the conv going. 📈🚀
