Well, that post ended suddenly. All I got was "Hacker News doesn’t create sustained traffic" and "Capitalize on hitting the front page" (conveniently, both in huge text). Everything else was fluff.

It seems like you were headed in the right direction with the stadium pitch bit, and you told us that Mint blogged about financial topics, but you failed to provide a solid set of marketing ideas. Should startups email bloggers? Join relevant forums? Participate in Twitter and Facebook? There has to be more to it.

I appreciate what you're going for, but I've noticed that much of your content (blogs + videos) just barely scratches the surface. Dig deeper.
