We have a Q&A that will help you understand Hacker News and our process for upvoting and posting there better.
Hacker News Upvote
$1.95(max: 10/new post)
We upvote with very strong accounts; if you don’t make it to the main page after at most 10 of our upvotes and a few organic ones, more won’t help! Explanations in two of our articles: #1, #2. For posts that are already on the main or second page, you can order at most 35 upvotes, but we’ll provide them with lesser karma accounts.
HN is about “anything that gratifies one’s intellectual curiosity”. Post fitting content! The “Show HN” area brings a lot of traffic to new projects. If we need to vouch for your post in order to un-shadow it (banned domain or flagged as spam), two upvotes will be deducted from the work that we need to provide.
Abuse Report
$4.50For all websites: send an abuse report from a very strong account for your chosen comment or post. Often it will be auto-deleted after the third report. This works especially well for Quora and Hacker News.
Hacker News Comment
$7.50We recommend buying at least one comment with each post, in order to shape opinions from the get-go. Anchoring is a powerful psychological weapon.
Since comments on HN tend to be more technical than on Reddit, please send texts for the comments as well – preferably two phrases or more each.
Hacker News Post
$22.50Let us post if you don’t have an account with good age, engagement, and positive karma. On all websites, we also choose the best time of the day to start the thread. More information on how you should formulate the post.
Hacker News Downvote Comment
$1.95(max: 10/comment)
Each of the accounts used for downvoting has at least 500 karma. The thread where the comment resides has to be newer than 30 hours.
