It's less about the number of upvotes, but more about the rate. Not even product announcements from Apple/Google/Facebook et al. get tens of upvotes immediately after they are posted.

I honestly don’t know what’s normal. Back when I posted stuff that got upvotes, I’d expect to see 10 in the first hour on a successful submission. This was in 2011 so there may have more traffic now. Or it may have been brigades by fellow YC. Is that a normal pattern for workaday YC blogs? Some statistics would be helpful if anyone tracks vote rates by domain.
