SaaS Product Hunt launch: get every landing page indexed before launch day

Product Hunt traffic spikes for 24 hours, then the post-launch SEO long tail kicks in for months. The catch: that long tail only works if Google indexed your launch landing page during the spike. If indexing happens a week later, you miss the surge of branded searches and backlinks.

Pre-launch (T-7 days)

1. Publish the launch landing page and any supporting content (announcement blog, demo video page, comparison pages).
2. Verify the domain in Search Console.
3. Run the Indexability Audit on each launch URL.
4. Push each URL through IndexerNow.
5. After 24h, run a status check. Aim for Indexed verdict before launch day.

Launch day

1. Verify the launch URL still returns Indexed status when checked.
2. Re-push if you've made meaningful copy changes between pre-launch audit and launch.
3. Make sure your meta tags, OG image, and canonical haven't drifted.

T+30 days post-launch

• Check status on every launch URL. Hopefully all Indexed.
• Audit any URLs that landed in Crawled-not-indexed and improve the content.
• Push your highest-ranking competitor-comparison pages monthly to keep Google's crawl fresh.
