Here's the day. Launching on Product Hunt is a 24-hour race — and it starts at 12:01 AM PST.

For the first 4 hours of the day, Product Hunt hides upvotes and sorts the homepage randomly. According to Product Hunt, this should give products "a more distributed chance at exposure early." Your objective is to rank in the Top 5 within that time to maximize exposure.

Pro tip: use hunted.space to monitor your launch day in real time.

During the day, upvote and reply to every comment. Make this day an opportunity to engage: start conversations and ask for feedback.

Laura Du Ry and the Appwrite team launched its Cloud Beta in October 2023 and ranked #4 Product of the Day. Laura tells:

The team was quick with responding and engaging. We cleared a part of the teams' calendar to be able to engage.

Tanya Rai from LastMile AI shares the feeling:

On launch day, we had the whole team on board to respond to messages almost instantly. This was a round-the-clock effort by the team to show that we were actively engaged and interested in what feedback we were receiving from the Product Hunt community. We left no questions or comments unanswered.

Make this launch day an opportunity to celebrate your efforts with your team and community. Make the most out of it by engaging in conversations and brainstorming new ideas, and above all, enjoy it.
