Smacky Cars – I think I have a winner
A couple days ago I released a very simple yet fun and extremely challenging game called Smacky Cars for both iOS and Android where you control a car which drives in the opposite direction of the traffic and you have to avoid the incoming cars by tapping left or right to change lanes. That's it! The game features retro pixel graphics and is extremely fun to play and I think (hope!) very...

My new site Zanda is a rating platform where users can rate and review items, people, places and anything else. Beside that we have toplists and users can create compares of items and have other users vote on it.

Ask HN: Best places to submit a new site to?
What are the best places to submit a new site to to get some reviews and comments? My Show HN from a couple days ago unfortunately wasn't very successful: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6775371

Finally! I have been looking forward to posting this on HN and I am very excited to hear your comments.
Zanda is a rating platform where you can do the following:
- Rate and review everything: items, people, places, events and more.
- You can create compares between two or more items and have the users or your friends cast their vote on an item.
- There are toplists which sort highest rated items based on all Zanda users.
- You can follow items, toplists, compares and users. All new actions around the items you follow will show up in your stream.
- You can earn badges for adding reviews, photos, ratings and many other actions you take.
- Zanda will rank you for the keywords you interact with. For example, you could be #1 in books because you comment and rate several items with the keyword “books.”
- If you do a search or check out toplists you will see items the people you follow have interacted with.
- You can see lists of trending items, compares, toplists and users.
- All items you own, have experience with, viewed, visited, listened to, etc., you can check as “Have” and they go to your achievements list
- All items you set as “Want” will go to your wishlist
Apps for iOS and Android are currently under development and are planned to launch in the near future.

Ask HN: Facebook ads and user engagment
I started running a couple ads on Facebook to my site Zanda.com and noticed the following problem: Those ads create a lot of engagement and discussions but the problem is that this is happening on Facebook and not on my site. Some ads get hundreds of comments and likes and I have the feeling I am generating content for Facebook and I am paying for it. Do you have any suggestions how to improve...

Yes it is for Zanda :), I agree SEO is one of the most important things or maybe the most important thing. I keep improving and optimizing everything and I am working on it all the time.

Thanks, I started already playing around with Facebook ads a while ago and I really do like it but I noticed that some of the users do create accounts they don't interact too much with the site or visit just one page. Of course this could be also a problem with the site and not the traffic. Since the tests I did a while ago I have improved the site a lot and I will start soon testing this more heavily again.

I use Google Analytics and I was also trying out clicktale but couldn't get much value from it using their free plan, they don't offer a full trial or something like that, you would need to buy it for a full year to test it and I think it is too expensive, at least for me...
