## First-Timer FAQ (updated 2026)

**Q: Our vote count dropped mid-day — were we penalized?**
Probably just routine cleanup: PH re-validates votes on ~2-hour cycles and removes anything that looks coordinated. Keep supporter turnout gradual — under ~100 votes/hour overall and under ~30/hour from any single community — and ask people to vote from personal phones on cellular networks rather than one shared office connection.

**Q: Daily, weekly, or monthly — which badge should a first-timer target?**
Know the stakes first: weekly-badge exposure is about 7x a daily badge; monthly is about 30x. First launch, small budget → pick a quieter Friday–Sunday slot and take the daily. Well-funded and patient → schedule a monthly run (second/third-week Tuesday) and plan sustained momentum.

**Q: Is PH even worth it for my budget?**
Run the numbers before committing. PH impressions→upvotes converts at around 1%. If total launch budget is under ~$5K (the level where ≈1,800 votes/24h becomes reachable — though one campaign that hit exactly that had its daily #1 revoked in a post-hoc vote sweep), the same money on a handful of Twitter micro-creators usually brings more signups — Reddit posts for open-source tools convert exposure→stars at 5–8%, several times better. Treat PH as a credibility badge, not your primary acquisition channel.

**Q: How much should I budget, and what does it buy?**
Rough field benchmarks from 2025–2026 launches:

| Budget | Realistic result |
|---|---|
| ~$1K | A few hundred signups via niche communities — take the PH badge, skip the fight |
| ~$5K | Daily #1 within reach |
| $10–20K | ~1M impressions plus low-thousands of signups |

Whatever the number, define the launch-day traffic target first and split it into per-channel quotas with UTM links — one tracked case turned 500K engineered visits into ~800 signups ($6.25 each), a useful reminder that the funnel matters more than the firehose.

**Q: Should I hit Hacker News the same week?**
Different game, faster clock: the front page requires roughly 30 upvotes + 10 comments within the first half hour, posted during US mornings — flat at minute 40 means it's over. Prepare 2–3 different angles (an "open source X alternative" link post, a how-it-works post) so you get more than one attempt, and skip paid HN posting services (~$500/post, poor ROI).
