You should look at with other set of eyes, like, you shouldn't be looking for a media channel for the sake of being a media channel - which producthunt is: a platform with the an audience of early adopters, entrepreneurs,and tech enthusiasts are... like they say "It's a place for product-loving enthusiasts to share and geek out about the latest mobile apps, websites, hardware projects, and tech creations."

There's the possibility that it's not the best place to focus your efforts on.

So the right answer is actually, everywhere, within the legal boundaries of course - and you shouldn't be disappointed with this reply, because it opens you to a whole world of possibilities.

You should rephrase your question like: This is my product [explain it or show it], and this is my audience (or potential audience), how to I get this product in front of this audience, with this budget (from 0 to ...).

Basically "It's a place for product-loving enthusiasts to share and geek out about the latest mobile apps, websites, hardware projects, and tech creations." the reason that I was thinking on PH first and looking for similar niche.

I would like to use all resources available for marketing but Im concerned that maybe that approach is not healthy at all.

Initially I was thinking in more like a personal project, where to share it, but that list is really like an eye opener for me. The are a whole world to show off.

Just don't submit to all of them at once, that's a good way to crater your google rank.

Some of those are also really spammy (Maqtoob) and I suspect have negative seo value.

Beta page is another one: https://betapage.co/

Is that website only for Premium products? I saw only products from Amazon, Apple, Google, etc.

Click on 'recent' to see the others. The 'trending' view is sorted by number of stars (likes?) so most well knows products seem to win. (Or everybody just submits their own and doesn't bother liking any others.)
