Came across this interesting post by @makeee this afternoon. His comment [0] became the most updated comment on this thread [1].
He says that the comment sent him “8,142 visitors and $891 in sales.”
On the other hand being on the front page only sent 5k.
Interested to know whether anyone else has had a comment send more traffic than their own original posts.
Edit: I’m a dummy. I misread the original. Front page of PH sent 5k. Not HN.

- phillipseamore 6y agoTo clarify: "being on the front of Product Hunt" not HN. HN just has more traffic than PH and a culture of reading comments.
