Where do you actually launch a product besides Product Hunt?

I’ve been researching something that seems surprisingly messy for indie hackers:

There are dozens of launch platforms out there, but they’re very different.

Some are daily hunts.
Some run weekly.
Some are better for pre-launch products.
Some have stronger developer or AI audiences.
Some are useful mainly for SEO.

And just having a huge list of websites doesn’t really help.

So I built Product Hunt Alternatives to make the research more useful:

https://producthunt-alternatives.com/

It currently covers 59 launch platforms and scores them across:

• Traffic potential
• Audience quality
• SEO/backlink value
• Ease of launch
• Community
• Cost

There are also rankings by use case, launch sequences, platform comparisons, launch guides, and a Launch Advisor to help narrow down options.

The idea is pretty simple:

Stop treating launch as one event. Treat it as a sequence of distribution opportunities.

Curious how other indie hackers approach this:

Do you still focus almost entirely on Product Hunt, or do you launch across multiple platforms?
