Relaunch like a pro: 100+ places to launch, relaunch, and list your product

Indie Hackers community · Indie Hackers Free Beginner

A crowdsourced list of over a hundred directories and communities where you can list or relaunch a product, useful as a checklist so your next attempt isn't limited to the one channel that went quiet the first time. Treat it as a menu, pick a few new ones for each relaunch instead of returning to the same well.

  • There are far more launch channels available than Product Hunt and Twitter alone
  • Spreading relaunches across different directories reaches a different audience each time
  • A quiet result on one channel says nothing about how you'll do on the next one
