Do you use ProductHunt as a release log?

Question

Do you only launch here once or twice, or for every new feature?

YanXu · Accepted Answer

We intend to do this so we can increase our team's exposure

Desire Waterman · Answer

I only launch major  updates here. For smaller features, I stick to other channels.

Griffin Rhys Donovan · Answer

Yep we do the same, posting our product updates and changelogs on PH. Helps keep our followers in the loop and draw some extra eyes to what we're building. Plus the PH community is super supportive so it's a good place to share milestones and get feedback!

Answer

Using PH as a changelog is a great idea! It helps keep your users informed of updates and builds exposure. We do the same and find it super effective for driving traffic and engagement. Make sure to add detailed release notes and maybe even a screenshot or two!

Answer

For me, it makes sense to use ProductHunt for big updates or new features that add substantial value. Smaller tweaks or minor updates usually get communicated throught other channels

Answer

I personally use ProductHunt for major releases and significant feature updates. I think launching every time might overwhelm users, so I prefer to focus on key milestones

Allen Deck · Answer

In my experience, launching on ProductHunt for every new feature can dilute the impact. I prefer to save it for bigger announcements to make a stronger impression and build hype  around significant updates

I don’t use Product Hunt  as a release log, but it’s interesting to think about. Does anyone else use it for tracking updates?

Yeah we're planning to use PH for release notes and to connect with the community around our launches. The exposure is great and it's an easy way to keep users in the loop on what's new.
