Products are submitted, called hunting, and other community members upvote, comment and share them as they compete on the homepage leaderboard for spots including Product of the Day. To submit, log in, click Submit in the top right, click New Product and enter the product's URL. Launching is free and needs a free personal account. Company accounts are prohibited.
