Launching on ProductHunt
by Helghardt AvenantWe did not want to spend too much time with a ProductHunt build-up and decided to get the product ready in its basic form, post it on ProductHunt, and ask a couple of friends to test it out and upvote if they liked it.
Here is a link to the launch: https://www.producthunt.com/products/lampbuilder#lampbuilder
ProductHunt is really a great way to get your product in front on users. It may not be your ideal target user, but it is great for getting user feedback.
Our ProductHunt metrics:
We reached out to about 50 friends on the day.
-119 upvotes
-26 comments
~1000 unique website visitors
~500 sites created
- 34 users registered
- 2 hosted sites configured
This is not a blow away ProductHunt launch, but interesting to see the level of engagement from potential end users. The initial feedback on feature requests helped validate what we should work on next.
