Product Hunt alternatives: 94 launch platforms, graded

Product Hunt is not the only place to launch, and for links it is not the best one: its own listing is nofollow. Of the 94 other launch platforms in our index, 24 are rated worth submitting, and 15 of those are free and pass a dofollow link.

What is Product Hunt still good for?

A day of attention from people who try new tools, and a page that ranks for your product’s name. In our index its listing is nofollow, and its DR belongs to the platform, not the product page, so treat it as a launch moment and do the graded ones above for the links. Our directories study explains how the grades and the DR scope were worked out.
