I'm surprised it wasn't higher. I got 15,000 uniques in a day and my link (http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1940129 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1940129) only had 36 upvotes.
I guess there isn't a direct relationship between links people find voteworthy and those they just want to visit.
- wgx 15y agoI had around 1,800 uniques over 3 hours in 2011 - posted some stats (browsers, OS, geo) here: http://willgrant.org/hn-traffic-stats-summary/ http://willgrant.org/hn-traffic-stats-summary/
- thenextcorner 15y agoI made a similar analysis over a longer period of time with a larger sample basis. http://thenextcorner.net/hn-users/ http://thenextcorner.net/hn-users/ Always interesting to see what systems, browsers HN users work on.
- smalter 15y agoAs far as signups are concerned, of the 10,000+ visitors we received, 3,000+ clicked through to the site, and 1,000+ signed up. I wrote a little here, http://blog.idonethis.com/post/15619811026/write-your-own-story http://blog.idonethis.com/post/15619811026/write-your-own-st..., about how the traffic we got did much better than a traditional press announcement.
- coderdude 15y agoI have a similar story which I blogged about afterwards: http://hackerthings.com/blog/launch-week-from-48-hour-project-through-the-first-7-days-online-100 http://hackerthings.com/blog/launch-week-from-48-hour-projec... There should be a public Google doc that lists all of these "what HN did for me" articles.
