I've never tried it, but it could be interesting maybe. What made you think of it Vladimir?

@nuno_ms_reis I also started recently exploring it, I found the post of a guy on IH who talks about posting relevant topics on HN and the amount of traffic he could generate. In 6 months more than 130 websites linked to his website with backlinks, if you are aware of the SEO game, that's crazy amount.

Hm, I will check on that. Thank you for sharing.

I just started on ph. :D So maybe i should have a look at Hacker News as well? What are your thoughts?
Michael Lappert
@vladimir_zivkovic would you consider it worth though to put the effort in then?
Vlad Zivkovic
@milappert It's very tough platform to crack, product hunt is very easy compared to HN
Vlad Zivkovic
@milappert After your product is launched, you can try it. It requires a lot of effort.

I have not even heard of such a resource, what is it?
Vlad Zivkovic
@ixord Probably the oldest resource out there for startups, it's part of the Y combinator.

I have never used it. But can you share your experience if you have used it? Is there any benefit of marketing on HN instead of Product Hunt?
Lindsay Davis
@shantanu96 I think you shouldn't use only one of them, they work better together.

In general I've never personally used for work myself, but I think it depends on the product. Because my product is unlikely to fly in there as it is too B2B.
Vlad Zivkovic
@erkin_bek It does depends on product market, there are a lot of startups and developers on HN.
