First off, post around 10 or 11am San Francisco time during a week day. Next if you're at a YC company, the accepted method is to spam everyone else in your batch, and tell them to find the link on the /newest page, and upvote. (Upvotes to direct links get ignored.)

The opposite is true. That is a likely way to get your posts penalized.
