Tips for Maximum Impact

1

Start with Product Hunt

Launch on Product Hunt first to get maximum visibility and backlinks from a DR 90+ site. Check our submission guide for tips.

2

Write unique descriptions

Don't copy-paste the same description. Tailor it for each platform's audience. Read our submission checklist for best practices.

3

Be patient

DR growth takes 2-4 weeks to reflect in Ahrefs/Moz. Keep submitting consistently to all 29 sites for compound backlink benefits.

4

Engage with communities

Sites like Reddit and Hacker News reward authentic engagement. Don't just drop links - participate in discussions.
