Hacker News alternative
A Show HN alternative with visibility that lasts longer than one thread
Hacker News spikes are great — but they fade in hours. Founder.best keeps your launch discoverable for a full week or month.
Why not rely on Show HN alone
A front-page Show HN post can drive massive traffic — once. Most threads fall off within a day, and there is no permanent product page or backlink on Hacker News itself.
Founder.best is a Hacker News alternative for sustained discovery: your product stays on the homepage feed, accumulates upvotes over days, and earns a dofollow link on your product page.
Combine Show HN with Founder.best
Smart founders post Show HN on launch day and submit to Founder.best the same week. Your HN thread captures early adopters; your Founder.best page captures SEO and weekly ranking momentum.
Founder.best is built for indie founders who want a fair weekly launch cycle, dofollow backlinks, founder stories, and plans from $2.99.
