Ask HN: Where to Feature Startup on Spanish, Portuguese, German, French?

Hello there!

I want to collect websites where I can feature (list) my SaaS-startup for Spanish, Portuguese, German and French speaking audience. I know that there're a lot of listing's set for English speaking but I haven't met for Spanish, Portuguese, German and French.

If you know some that websites, please, write it in the comments. I'll put it together in a single list and then post it here.

My readlist in French is https://www.journalduhacker.net/ , as suggested in another comment, and https://linuxfr.org/, covering open source, if it applies to your product. Then Hackernews, but you are already here. Appart from that, it depends on your product. You will need to communicate through the niche channels your SaaS is adressing (aka woodworking channels for a woodworking Saas, etc ...)

I think about some lists like this https://www.submitjuice.com/directories but not only for English-speaking audience.

May be some UGC-based websites like vc.ru for Russian-speaking.

Biggest IT news site in Germany is heise.de, they also have a catalogue with software and service providers - you can contact their team at software@heise.de (if it's a commercial proposal with subject: "Kommerzielle Listung bei heise Download" according to their FAQ at https://www.heise.de/download/page/Haeufig-gestellte-Fragen-... )

Thanks for your advice!

May be there're some listings like this https://www.submitjuice.com/directories but for German-speaking? Or UGC-based websites about startups?

Sorry that my comment provides little to no value to the original question: being a native Spanish speaker from Latin America, in my 10 years in IT, I have been so far unable to find a site that comes close to any tech forum or something like Hacker News. I agree with franciscop that there should be a Spanish Hacker News. The problem is: what content would it be fed with, as quality content is scarce.

I think about not only HN but just about lists like this https://www.submitjuice.com/directories for not only English-speaking.

And why wouldn't that content be translated into English anyway?

I struggle to imagine such local-specific topics that they couldn't/wouldn't draw attention here at HN

For french, there's a decent website similar to Product Hunt: https://lespepitestech.com/

It has a good following and a weekly e-mail list so it's probably worth it to post there as well

When it comes to startup, welcome to the jungle is probably the reference: https://www.welcometothejungle.com/fr/media

Although it is a professional outlet, so it's not like you can expect to just publish there for free.

OnlyMateo · 3 years ago

Yeah, thanks

"pas de commentaire" for all but two articles on the front page though, unfortunately :(

It appears to be invite-only (even though you can request an invite). I'm not sure about what drove them to do so, but that may be why there is not much activity on the website.

Thanks. I'll try it)

Relevant only if you want to get some exposure to european investors though.
