I think if it's interesting, it will get to the front page. Submitting to HN is not really a contest, just share with us what you think would interests us.

Of course, there's some basics to make it more attractive, like a good formatting if you're adding a comment to your submission or maybe start a discussion related to your link (if there's one).

You should always try to make it more easier and enjoyable to read. Hope this helped.

Yeah it was very helpful, thanks cellard00r.

What has your experience been with posting here, and making the front page?

I know it's not a competition, but if I were to launch a product or service in the future, I'd of course like to have it reach as many people on here as possible :D
