ph-profile-optimizer_skill

Overview

This skill optimizes your Product Hunt maker profile to build credibility, grow followers, and maximize launch impact. It provides a step-by-step audit, prioritized fixes, and a 4-week pre-launch activity plan focused on authentic engagement. Use it to ensure your profile converts visitors into supporters and notifications reach your audience.

How this skill works

The skill inspects core profile elements (photo, name, headline, bio, links) and evaluates activity signals like comments, upvotes, and follower count. It generates prioritized recommendations (critical, important, nice-to-have) and a practical weekly plan to build reputation before launch. It also supplies ready-to-use headline and bio copy tailored for Product Hunt.

When to use it

• Setting up a new Product Hunt profile for the first time
• Polishing your profile 4 weeks before a launch
• Building pre-launch credibility and followers
• Coordinating maker profiles for a team launch
• Recovering from low engagement or inconsistent presence

Best practices

• Use a clear, consistent headshot that matches other platforms
• Keep headline scannable: role + what you build (≤60 chars)
• Write a short hook first line in your bio, then one credibility line
• Engage genuinely: comment on 2–3 products daily with value
• Avoid self-promotion in comments; focus on helping others

Example use cases

• Audit my profile and get a concise list of critical fixes before launch
• Create a 4-week pre-launch activity calendar to grow followers
• Prepare coordinated profiles and response roles for a team launch
• Translate existing bio into a Product Hunt-optimized headline and CTA
• Assess activity history to predict follower growth signals
