Introducing Randomized Leaderboard Day on Product Hunt!
If you re launching today, the leaderboard is about to get a lot more interesting.

The Mechanics
To level the playing field, we are cycling the homepage layout throughout the day:
The Loop: This cycle repeats every 30 minutes, all day long.

How I am approaching Product Hunt as a solo founder:
I m launching my first startup tonight lumeforms and have been thinking about how to approach it. I ve been doing a bit of research online as well, and have collected my thoughts below:
Don t attach yourself to the results. PH is based on luck, timing, what else launches that day, and who happens to be online. Do your best and then let it go.
Treat it as a milestone, not a revenue event. Don t expect any conversions. If you convert customers, congrats! Treat it as gravy.
Use it as a forcing function. You can treat it as a standard to make sure your product is up to snuff in all the ways that matter, including things like branding and positioning.
Don t BS the launch. PH as a link ranks well and it s great SEO and a place to establish how to think about your product.
I wonder how this aligns with your guys' view on Product Hunt. Let me know.
