Product Hunt hub handoff after launch
Treat launch day as a temporary surface, then move attention to the Product Hub where reviews, updates, and website clicks can keep compounding.
Why this can grow a startup
Launch pages are built for leaderboard momentum, not long-term discovery. Product Hunt's own guidance says the Product Hub becomes the durable home for reviews, launches, awards, and traffic back to your site. Teams that make that handoff cleanly keep more value after the one-day spike disappears.
Source-backed example
Product Hunt's launch timeline tells makers to claim their Product Hub after launch because it becomes the central page for the product's history and main website CTA.
