Affiliate Tracking for Product Hunt Launches
Product Hunt launches create a burst of attention that fades quickly. Trackli helps you capture lasting value by turning your Product Hunt supporters, hunters, and early adopters into affiliates who continue promoting your product long after launch day, tracked with proper attribution.
How to Set Up Product Hunt Affiliate Tracking
Get up and running in minutes with these simple steps.
Pre-Launch Affiliate Setup
Set up your Trackli affiliate program before your Product Hunt launch. Have referral links ready for supporters who want to promote your launch.
Create Launch-Day Referral Campaign
Give supporters special affiliate links to share on launch day. Track which supporters drive the most signups and conversions from the launch.
Offer Launch-Day Commission Bonuses
Create time-limited commission bonuses for launch day and the following week. This incentivizes intense promotion during the critical launch window.
Convert Early Adopters to Affiliates
After launch, invite your earliest paid users to become affiliates. They experienced your product first and have authentic stories to share.
Track Long-Tail Launch Traffic
Product Hunt pages rank in Google for months. Track long-tail referral traffic from your PH page and attribute it to the original supporters.

From referral link to commission payout — fully automated with Product Hunt.
