"Growth hacking"

• bliteben 5y ago
  Makes me wonder if a large company like Facebook has ever "accidentally" counted their shadow profiles in user growth numbers.

    Facebook's initial growth hack was getting contacts in individual universities to send email rosters to them so they could send hand-crafted invites to be in the network.

    ^ bots. 2 Billion DAUs is an insanely larger number of users and I hardly know anyone who is using Facebook much anymore. Surely that's anecdotal and there are parts of the world where FB is the gateway to the Internet.
