Adriaan from the article here. You are right. HN is the right target group for Simple Analytics. If I had posted a totally different product with no privacy angle or interest for HN readers, it would have little result. You need to find you target audience and I believe HN is one for Simple Analytics.

I also hear a lot of people knowing Simple Analytics from Hacker News. So maybe they don't convert to customer yet, they know about my tool. Which is super useful and got me talks with DuckDuckGo and other great companies. It's not only for selling your tool, it's also great for getting your name out there.
