Product Hunt Launch Checklist for App Developers
A Product Hunt launch works best when it feels like a real product story, not a last-minute post. Prepare the tagline, gallery, first comment, maker profile, promo code, and answer bank before launch day. Your goal is to make it easy for a visitor to understand what changed, who it helps, and why they should try it now.
Before launch
Create a short tagline, three to five gallery images, a demo link, a founder comment, and a launch offer. Ask early users for honest feedback before the public launch so the comments do not feel empty.
Launch day
Reply quickly, thank specific feedback, and add details about roadmap, pricing, and use cases. Keep the product link stable and make sure analytics, checkout, and support forms work.
