I've read a similar article which was on the frontpage of HN not so long ago. And it was better. Why would you use ThatHigh as an example to illustrate this ? I think this site did poorly. And just looking at how much fan they have on their facebook can pretty much prove my point (I got like 95k fans on my page just by liking something with my facebook account. Never did anything else than that to promote my website)


The traffic numbers are legit and not inflated, if that's what you're wondering about.

Honestly, I don't know that many people who have built a community site of similar traffic level that quickly, especially without doing any SEO.

If you can put me in touch with others who have accomplished something like this, I would love to write about them too.

Maybe I missed it, but did you mention the site's age anywhere in the article?


The thing is. I don't see a big traffic on this "community site". I call that a fair traffic that will maybe not last.


Would you mind sharing your techniques? I'd be more than happy to learn :-)
