Product Hunt
Worth submitting to. Free, DR 91 and 2.7M monthly visits — but only if you run it as a launch day with an audience lined up, which is the difference between a spike and silence.

Who actually reads it
Makers, early adopters, tech press and investors, concentrated into a single day per launch. Ranking is driven by same-day engagement, which is why the platform rewards preparation and punishes drive-by submissions.
What a strong listing looks like
A launch treated as an event: a thumbnail readable at card size, a 60-character tagline that lands without context, a maker comment posted in your own voice, and an audience you told in advance. Reply to every comment on the day. Submitting as "one more directory" produces nothing.

Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes.
Can I automate the launch?
No. Product Hunt's GraphQL API exposes only follow and unfollow mutations — posting is manual.
Do I need reviews first?
No, but you need people ready to show up on launch day. Ranking is driven by same-day engagement.
