What Launch Time Does Product Hunt Advice Give, and When Did Alertsforbtc.com Go Up?
at 5:30
Answer
The Product Hunt advice Alex repeats on Building an Indie Business is to launch at 12:00 a.m. Pacific Time, so the post has the full day to collect votes and so people in the Bay Area, where he thinks most of the users are, can see it. He does not love the rule. If everyone posts at midnight, the 12:00 a.m. posts bury each other, and not everyone in the Bay Area is awake then. He posted alertsforbtc.com at 12:15 a.m. and wonders whether 7:00 a.m., when people are opening the site, would be seen by more of them.
