How do they make revenue currently? I don't see any ads, and I don't even see anywhere I can promote my product for a fee. I'll go out on a limb and suggest it

I'll go out on a limb and suggest it's 40-60X revenue, and even that may be too low (anyone from ProductHunt reading, please correct me, but I doubt it).
- wwalser 10y agoYou could be correct but I'd assume they are making reasonable money on referral programs and direct sales. I know for a fact that direct sales are a thing (or were at one point)[0]. Basically the "get it" button becomes a checkout for for some products instead of a link to the site. Taking advantage of referral programs also seems like an obvious thing that they _should_ be using. Especially for companies which want a product hunted and already have a referral program in place. 0. https://techcrunch.com/2016/05/19/product-hunt-is-ready-to-rake-in-revenue-by-selling-goods-directly-on-the-platform/ https://techcrunch.com/2016/05/19/product-hunt-is-ready-to-r...
