How I got ~1800 new unique Visitors in 2 days and >100 User registrations out of them.

About 3 weeks ago somebody here on IH asked, what is a good place to do a blog post, talking to developer community. I advised to to via dev.to, but guy said, it's ugly looking site. And really, it's not the nicest page on earth.

Well. End of last week I did a really unmotivated

              yeah. there is also hashnode.com, which is more or less a copy of dev.to (idea side), but looks imho much nicer. BUT ... there with same post no results, much less users etc etc.
              Btw.. Hacker News... Nicest Page on world, a UX like when I started with Netscape Browser... but... you know what I mean :-)

                Hi!
                I have never heard about hashnode, is it kind of mirror of dev.to?

                1. 1

                  Mirror not, more kind of equal service.

                    Another try too :)
                    (I'm replying here because it looks like IH restrict the amount of perlies).
                    WHY the heck do they look so similar if they don't have anything to do with each other??
                    (It's rather a rhetorical question, so no need to reply :))

                    Thanks. The text doesn't even mention dev.to but it looks pretty much the same. I don't get it :\

                      another try :-) :
                      Hashnode has nothing to do with dev.to.
                      BUT it's same kind of service they offer. Community/Blogs for Developers
