I 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 15y 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 15y agoThat has been close to my experience in the past as well.
- olegp 15y 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/
