I write the Product Hunt newsletter. Here's how to get featured in it. : Product Hunt Discussion Forums | Product Hunt
Hey everyone 👋 I'm Aaron and for the last few years I've been writing the Product Hunt newsletters. That includes: our daily, weekly, developer tools, and AI tools ones. Every morning I look through the homepage to try and find the coolest products to write about and I want to share with you all what I look in a launch so you can increase your chances of getting featured! Uniqueness: It doesn't need to be a never before seen world-changing product. It just needs to do something unique. I'm not going to write about yet another social media scheduler unless it flips the script a little and does something interesting compared to the rest. A good gallery: I can't stress this enough, without some solid images showcasing your product, there's a high chance I will skim past it. It doesn't need to be mind-blowing top tier design skills, just avoid blurry images and avoid screenshots that are illegible. A ton of tools like @Xnapper make it super easy to take beautiful gallery shots in seconds.

You can just launch.

Take @kilocode.ai. Launched on a weekend with minimum, 5-day prep, and no cold outreach.

Results? #⁠1 Product of the Day, #⁠1 OSS Product of the Week, #⁠1 OSS Product of the Month.

Keep it simple, launch, and keep launching.

Product Hunt is underrated.

It isn't just a launch platform. It’s also a newsletter with 1M subscribers, a search engine, an ad platform, and a Reddit-like community; a place where most users are technical founders, and dev tools among the most loved products.

Pro tip when launching on Product Hunt: Fine-tune your visual assets.

Take Aikido for example. #⁠1 Product of the Day, #⁠1 Developer Tool of the Month. They _really_ nailed it.

#⁠1 Product of the Day, #⁠1 Developer Tool of the Month

Aikido first launched on Product Hunt a month ago. They _crushed it._

What did they do right and how to apply this to your launch? Read on.

Launched in 2022, Product Hubs are your permanent company page on Product Hunt to learn about your product's journey: launches, reviews, awards, news, team…

I recently ran an experiment analyzing the organic traffic from these pages over 30 days.

Here's what I learned.
