I guess it's somewhat interesting that AdWords can confirm what are good titles and what aren't but I could've told you at the outset that the first two titles are vague meaningless titles that won't draw anyone's attention. "The last frontier in payments"? Really? I know I wouldn't read that because it sounds like marketing BS.
Also, reaching the front page on the weekend has a lower barrier to entry. I see posts with 13 votes hang around for hours.
- duiker101 14y agoIt's true they hang around for more but it's also probably harder to gain those 13 votes.
- myotherthings 14y agoYup, this is exactly what I've found. Weekends are harder to get votes on, but the posts last much longer once they get traction.
- bmelton 14y agoAs duiker mentioned, getting those 13 votes is likely quite a bit harder. HN on the weekends is a pretty insufferable place to be, and the activity present seems less like the type to be surfing /new and making quality discussion so much as it appears to be the sort of mob who runs around making pithy snark, and upvoting others who engage in like behavior.
