Ask HN: I'm launching my startup in 3 days
I'm launching my startup in 3 days. Site and product will be ready to go live. Where do I go from here? Where to promote it to get the word out?

- dudul 11y agoHow can we help if we don't know what your startup does? A startup developing a product to help farmers is not gonna be promoted that same way a startup for electricians is.
- bhartzer 11y agoIt's a background check for domain names. Full background checks to make sure the domain wasn't "churned and burned" in the past.
- benologist 11y agoThis sounds like something people buying/selling websites would like, have you looked at communities like http://www.sitepoint.com http://www.sitepoint.com and http://www.dnforum.com http://www.dnforum.com?
- troels 11y agoThis might be something you could sell to people in the black hat seo community. You could try advertising on forums such as blackhatworld.com, warriorforum.com etc.

- paulina_g 11y agoTry to see how it organically grows on social media. Create a Twitter page for your company. If you make a blog for the product, you can post your blog posts on your companies social medias. On the blog you can post product update, talk about where the company originated from and more! It helps you build a "voice" and "personality" for your brand. Reach out to your friends, family and people in your various networks and have them use the product to get honest feedback. If you have people whose feedback you respect, add them into a Trello board and ask them to give you feedback on Trello, so you can track and actually utilize their comments. Definitely post the website on your LinkedIn as a blog post, so people in your LinkedIn network can see it. Try to get onto cool podcasts to talk about your product like this one: http://techcrunch.com/2015/07/06/pitch-your-startup-in-the-tc-radio-pitch-off-on-sirius-xm-6/?ncid=rss&utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+Techcrunch+%28TechCrunch%29 http://techcrunch.com/2015/07/06/pitch-your-startup-in-the-t... Best of luck!!
