Right, and I am thankful for that. However, my point is that in the entire history of my HN career (which spans many, many hours), maybe 100 people have clicked on that link. Maybe 2 of those 100 people turned around and bought the game (probably quite a generous estimate).
If you do the math, that is approaching $0/hour. It is simply not a good way to acquire customers, nor should it be expected to be.
- shafqat 17y agoFair point, but I never said leaving comments on blogs should be a customer acquisition strategy. If it is, you have big problems! What I was saying is that leaving commnents on blogs helps you get the initial traction, both in terms of exposure and press coverage. That's it. Once you are past that stage, I agree it's an inefficient use of your time to spend all day combing blogs looking for relevant posts to comment on!
