โ€ข
โœ… My Findings are as follows: #title #description #first Comment #A video #some good high resolution Images #Embed Ph launch to landing page #invite comakers #share on socials โœ… if these are done precisely , you can expect and have a high chance to get featured on the home page on your launch Day. **Please Note This is my personal opinion and PH still does not Guarantee getting featured under any condition. ๐Ÿ™ ๐Ÿ™ If you are looking for any assistance regarding your launch, Please feel free to write me anytime. As a TOP maker myself, i will be happy to assist you with my knowledge and experience. Lets connect everywhere possible ๐Ÿค

Thanks for the infos! However, I find it great that PH does not reveal the criterias, it brings some magic to the launch days
Germรกn Merlo
Agree my friend! Great check for launching stages
Patricia Fondevila
Thank you, @istiakahmad , for the tips. We have a launch coming soon (https://www.producthunt.com/prod...) and although we've reviewed the guide provided by Product Hunt, I can't stop reading about their tips and experiences.

@istiakahmad @pfg It would be great to hear from you in our launching day, please support and upvote on launching SYFLY @syfly and at the same time we are happy to receive your feedback about the whole application from design to features.

No matter how much effort you waste into this, if your hunter doesn't have permission to manually feature the launch - you are out of luck. Also expect being ghosted by PH Support, because they don't care.
Andrei Kashtanov
@istiakahmad too much effort is going to be wasted because the platform and PH support don't care. At this point, after so many launches have met this fate, the only logical way is to give up on the platform.

This is something that makes me nervous. I've been actively working on PH for 5 months so far. We have designed a cool video, fancy images, embedding PH at our main page and working a lot in communication. Of course I've accomplished with all these terms you pointed out, but even so I see people getting unfeatured with no understanding on what really happened. Sometimes I just think the algorithm can 'wake up in a bad mood' and takes your release out of the list. This is quite stressful and breaks my heart seeing people who had the same hard work, getting unfeatured with no idea on what happened.

Great tips! Thanks!
No matter how much you game a system, nothing beats making a really good product. Best part is, they rarely stay hidden for long
Zenda
Yes! the content is very important.

Launching soon!
Thanks for sharing, Istiak. I can confirm that we did all of the above for our launch of Marlee and were featured on our launch day. I'd also add to your list that we invested a lot of time growing followers on our pre-launch teaser page. I observed that as our number of followers grew, PH improved our listing on the 'coming soon' page, i.e., we rose in the rank, so I'd assume that also plays a part in whether you're featured or not. I'd assume the algorithm possibly takes into account daily gradual growth (ie organic growth) vs rapid bursts of growth which would indicate paid votes. Do you agree?
