What are your tips for a successful launch at Product Hunt?

This is my action plan: https://docs.google.com/spreadsh... You do not have to follow of it, if you only want to make a no frill launch: https://medium.com/@fabian-maume...

Definitely take a look at the guide put together by @falak_sher. Also this: https://www.producthunt.com/post.... Cannot recommend enough.

Be active and be sociable - use PH daily to know the trends and get some good ideas, to get to know other PH users, their products, etc. Participate in discussions, create discussions yourself, and help others. Also, upcoming PH page is a must. Most importantly, you need to create a product that's valuable to people and all the users here. Btw, we’re launching in late April or the start of May. Check out our upcoming PH page: www.producthunt.com/upcoming/eff... Our project is called: Effecto. It’s an app for detailed health tracking. Pretty much for everything that is related to your physical or mental health and every daily factor that can affect you.

The first thing to remember is that the relevance of your submission depends on how relevant it is to the community. In other words, if you don't spend some time reaching out to the community before you launch, you might want to reconsider this strategy. However, if you put in the effort and take their advice, the payoff could be huge.
