Dozens of dollars! Seriously, that is the going rate for boosting an article to the HN front page (not to say it will stay on the front page, flagging and dang are quite effective).
- gkop 5y agoConsidering this article has spent hours on the front page and remains in the top 10, I don't see the point you're trying to make. Also, note organic.
- clusterfish 5y agoPoint is doing a whole rebrand to get a burst of news about it is dumb. The burst is over in days, but you're stuck with the new brand for years. Some short lived publicity is at best a small side effect, not a big reason to do it.
