This seems like a nice gesture to be sure. The cynic in me can't help but wondering whether you're going to get more traffic from this offer than the selected startups will get from the free advertising. Does codesketch.com have traffic?

Yes, codesketch has traffic (not massive, but respectable). It's relatively new (launched in December), and has been averaging 10,000+ hits a week. More importantly, we've found a strong niche that loves technology and design. Based on analytics, our readers are tech savvy and have some cash. I know already that some of the startup submissions will be a perfect fit.
This is just a sincere thank you to the community for helping me grow.

10k hits, really? I'm getting only a little less than that per day on a very small time personal blog... traffic profile and engagement are, of course, more important than raw numbers however.
I'm sure your next months hits will be higher!
