#1 Spot On HN: Our Traffic Stats
- dot 16y agoNice work. Maybe you would get more people to sign up if you told us why you need write access to our twitter accounts.
- dshipper 16y agoThanks! We're working on doing a demo video, but in the meantime the Twitter account access is to a. get all of your articles and b. to allow you to participate in the comment system on the site which is basically a Facebook comment system for Twitter.
- random42 16y agoI am a little surprised that #1 spot on HN fetched you 5000 odd page views. For some reason, I always thought it to be much more.
- dshipper 16y agoWe did reach the front page early in the morning EST (starting at about 6 AM and ending at around 1 PM) so HN traffic was a little lower than usual in that period.
- dman 16y agoThat has been close to my experience in the past as well.
- olegp 16y agoWe got 56,000 page views in the week when this happened to Akshell, but that was largely due to the fact that the story spread to Twitter. More info for anyone interested here: http://blog.akshell.com/hn-effect/ http://blog.akshell.com/hn-effect/
