And I do think a lot of it is very hit or miss.

Sometimes you win the lottery.

One of the things that I've found continuously helpful, though, is just searching for

comments and folks discussing the broad genre and sort of like dropping your name in a little bit.

Obviously, you don't want to be spammy with it.

But even after the initial launch, sort of the show HN post, if that doesn't work out so well, you can still be present in the community and have conversations and slowly offer folks and I still see a large proportion of my traffic coming from, you know, comments that I've made months ago on Hacker News, as long as

The content is relevant and the tool itself is put into the discussion.

So that comes into the other feedback loop, too, of folks in that community who are using Bundown as a platform.

When those posts go viral, I get a ton of inbound marketing there because it's all on the top level domain.

That was, I think you can strategize more in terms of the initial launch.

Product Hunt is much more friendly in terms of letting people kind of glom on and being very sort of positive.

Like the community there in general is nicer, but it's the opposite of a long tail, right?

Like you're not going to be able to bring it up in a lot of discussions.

I think the state of discourse and like the actual people commenting on Product Hunt is much more less in volume.

It's really just that first day.

If you can kind of get in the top five, then you're gonna get a great spike of content, but it'll drop off pretty dramatically thereafter.

I don't off the top of my head.

I remember it was pretty substantial.

Like even now, when I look at my historic signup graph, like that is a very prominent spike.

It was dramatic and it was very useful.
