Front Page of Hacker News in 5 Easy Steps
- levlaz 8y agoI think it’s kind of funny that this is not on the front page of hacker news.
- greenyoda 8y agoI think that the article itself explains why that is: > No tips or tricks will replace writing something interesting or helpful. Yet another article about how to get on the front page of HN isn't interesting. (Such articles appear often.) And most HN readers don't care about getting their post on the front page, so it's not really helpful to them.

- gus_massa 8y agoIt's not bad advice, but most steps are not so easy. Perhaps I'd recommend not to repost too much. In some cases it goes out of control and the mods ban the user and site.
- quickthrower2 8y agoHe’s giving the table stakes, but there is some luck involved too. Also HN provides a decent amount of traffic for non first page asubmissions and if you are in a niche it can still be useful.
