What Challenges Did You Face as a Newbie on Product Hunt?

Aaa, let's start with the story. When I first joined Product Hunt, I was so excited but also felt completely out of my depth. I remember how overwhelming it was, trying to figure out how to get my product noticed, connect with the community, and navigate the platform. It felt like everyone else had it all figured out, and I was just... lost. 😵
Have you ever felt that way???
Maybe you launched something you poured your heart into, but it didn’t get the attention you hoped for. Or you weren’t sure how to break the ice with other makers here.
I’d love to hear about your journey—your struggles, your breakthroughs, and what you’ve learned along the way.
Let’s make this a space to support each other and help newcomers feel a little less alone.
Um, What’s your story? 😀

We wanted to share the product but didn't know how to present it. So I had to "study" short copy text how to write the most compelling title, 1st commend under the launch etc.

Wow, Hamza....23 products launched, that's impressive! My journey is just beginning, as our product is still in the development stage. I’m looking forward to learning from experiences like yours to navigate the process and hopefully launch successfully too!
@hamza_afzal_butt We are working on two products, and I will start posting about them soon, before the launch. Stay connected! :)

I learned how vital mindset, mental health, going to the gym, and your personal life is to build a successful company.
I was so lost at first! Once I started interacting more, it all clicked, and I felt part of the community.
I felt like I was shouting into the void, but supporting others and interacting made a huge difference.
