Is "effort" the best metric to measure success with?

  I don't understand what you mean. What are you referring to?

    HN being hard to reach doesn't compensate for the 25x difference in value against their ideal customers. Reaching HN is a recipe - write, submit, and master getting 2 or 3 early upvotes. There's no unknown steps, there's no mystery, the best time of day to submit has been documented 100 times along with the words you should use and the topics you should write about. Reaching your ideal customers is much harder because you don't have meticulous instructions that read "just add labor".
