Product Hunt basics

Product Hunt topics list

Browse the full list of tags to pick the right 1-3 for your launch.

Product Hunt's full topics list. You pick up to 3 topics per launch, and they determine which category leaderboards you're eligible for. How to choose your topics: • Pick one broad topic your product clearly fits (e.g. "SaaS", "Developer Tools", "Marketing"). • Pick one specific topic that describes the job to be done (e.g. "Email Marketing", "Analytics", "No-code"). • Pick one audience topic that describes who it's for (e.g. "Startups", "Designers", "Remote Workers"). Avoid: cramming three broad topics ("SaaS + Productivity + Marketing"). You'll rank on none of them. Do this today, not on launch day. Category selection is often the difference between "Product of the Day" and "#1 in a category you can actually win", both of which are worth badges.
