Product Hunt on Monday is surprisingly tough

We've launched on Product Hunt 3 times already.

Monday was always chill and easy to win. But not anymore, I guess.

The first place got 500 upvotes in 5 hours, wow. That's hard to match.

But maybe we can with the power of IndieHackers? 😅

Check MakerBox Roasting out. We roast landing pages in 48 hours or less.

(IndieHackers suggested a lot of improvements for our landing page here. Thanks, everyone, it helped ❤️)

    Don't get it twisted, PH is not everything....

    I had worst launches, grew it to 1k/m and even got acquired.

    PH position for this SaaS? 11th,...5th....

    Use other marketing channels, talk about it,link to it as much as you can ( without spamming )

    List it on Alternativeto.net....at least.

    Look at my PH profile https://www.producthunt.com/@michael_andreuzza/made

    Some of those doing good don't even exist,...

      It means a lot.

      By the way, I loved Serendipity V2.0.

      The best theme that I've seen

    It's simple: if you want traffic and exposure–launch early (Mon, Tue, Wed). If you want a badge–launch on the Weekend.

    Monday is one of the hardest days with lower upside.

    If you feel confident launch Tuesdays, otherwise Thursdays.

    1. 1

      yes, will try Thursday next time 🤝

      thank you!

    Maybe people are just scared.
    Don't worry.
    It's okay if one single product doesn't take off like crazy (for a change).😉😁

    You guys are already awesome! We launched on Monday as well, and way fewer upvotes than yours. If you'd like to have a look, here it is: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/gemoo-beta 🥶
