How Can Small Founders With Small Networks Gain Visibility on PH?

Hi all! A few days ago, I wrote about my experience as a first-time founder and a brand new member of Product Hunt. One thing that really stood out was how kind, welcoming, and supportive everyone has been. That got me thinking about something else. As a small founder without a large network, visibility feels like one of the biggest challenges. The community has been great, but I wonder how many great products never get discovered simply because the founder is starting from scratch. I'm curious what others think: If you launched with a small network, what helped you gain traction? How do you discover products outside of the daily leaderboard? Would dedicated spaces for first-time founders or smaller launches be useful? What could Product Hunt do to help more hidden gems get seen? I'd genuinely love to hear different perspectives. One of the things I've already come to appreciate about Product Hunt is the people, and I'd be interested to hear ideas on how we can help more small founders find their audience.
