Horizontal. Though, vertical tends to have better short term results.

Not only that, but vertical has a better chance of even making it past the short-term. With a vertical, it's much easier to find a pain point that needs to be solved, build it, and focus your marketing efforts.

The results of the poll seem to be bearing that out.

It would have been very surprising to see another outcome.
