I would say LinkedIn - if you're topic expert then it becomes quite easy

ProductHunt. Basically just engaging in conversations and that was it

Product Hunt is useful for people who want to stay informed about new technology!

@busmarkno_w_nika @chethan_bm thanks god :D lately I experience them. Ups :D
X and PH!
On X, I'm posting and asking things on communities (also use tags if you want a better reach), reply them (basically making convo), and follow them, they'll follow you back :)
On PH, I think just engage yourself through regular discussions like this, help others, and support product launches! You'll do numbers I believe.

@evan_christophers I am pretty curious about hashtags: Which one do you use?
+ Regarding Twitter discussions: Did you find it helpful to use polls within those questions? I somehow can't handle that format.
Producthunt is a great platform in this way.

@harry_brook16 Why do you think so that it is better than X or LI?

I think you need to understand your audience. On PH the people are mostly business-oriented (founders, co-founders, CTO, small number of startup enthusiasts) and a lot of marketing people (a lot). The PH can show an analysis on this but so far I have not seen any.
Coming back to the point:
1. Figure out your audience
2. Figure out where your audience hang out
3. Based on that figure out what content they would be interested in
4. Do not share AI-generated content because C-level people hate it (this is an opinion based on talking to some leaders in different industries)
Maybe people can add more here.

I am aligned wit each point – and number 3 is crucial. People downgrading themselves with this one. @krazygaurav93
Launching soon!
LinkedIn for sure. This thing works like magic once you figure out who your target audience is.
Launching soon!
@busmark_w_nika 6 days a week i post, usually about my experiences, these days about product hunt, most of the other time about personal branding
Launching soon!
@busmark_w_nika yes they did, we do a shoutout post on Linkedin for other launchers to support them that goes well and along the way what we are learning about product we post about those too so they have gained decent traction and with help of those we get more followers /connection requests

ProductHunt handsdown

@hiya_chaplot1 What has helped you to grow this platform?
Chatscout by Zevi
@busmark_w_nika launching products+ commenting
I think it depends on the country and the product. Different digital channels work well in different countries and industries
minimalist phone: creating folders
@giorgi_khatiashvili2 That's quite true. In my country, many people don't use Twitter so I would probably didn't target them there. Good point, Giorgi.
There is no magic pill. The easiest platform is the one you invested your time consistently for a long period of time. You are familiar there and you understand your audience better. Relationships is our capital, which when realised pays a good profit with less efforts.

@olgaialovenko Well said. Anyway, which platform is your strongest one?
@busmark_w_nika facebook and LinkedIn
It actually depends on your goals and target audience. For me, TikTok's large audience and viral potential make it a strong platform for gaining followers.
minimalist phone: creating folders
@rey_flint Do you have TT?
@busmark_w_nika I have TikTok, but I'm just a casual observer.
I haven’t actively focused on gaining followers before, but when we decided to launch our product on Product Hunt, it became essential. I found Product Hunt and LinkedIn to be the easiest platforms for this. The key has been to stay active and provide value. As a result, the follower growth and networking opportunities have come naturally.

@kate_shcherbak LI is crucial when connecting with people from PH, anyway, Twitter seems to me more informal but many "convertible leads" found me there.
minimalist phone: creating folders
@kate_shcherbak The sooner you start, the better. It is very difficult to earn trust there because freshly started profile a few days before launch cannot have so much trust (due to bots).
@busmark_w_nika honestly, I even don’t have a twitter profile.. maybe I should sign up there too :))

LinkedIn has been great for audience building for B2B
minimalist phone: creating folders
@trevor_lee Yes, but also B2C is quite frequent there as more and more people are trying to be freelancers and solopreneurs searching for a job.
Thanks to consistent engagement and sharing of relevant content, the easiest platforms for me to gain followers were Twitter and ProductHunt.
