How did Yoomoot make it to that many users?

Categorised in:

Your website, Yoomoot, isn't that old, but has yet a lot of users and looks quite successful concerning to the amount of content you actually can present.

I want to add: now that I have worked with it for some questions and follow up questions, I find it very comfortable to arrange a discussion - and the generated overview is an eye-candy and easy to use as well.

But I miss one thing: how about adding a quick-comment-function, like we know it from www.stackoverflow.com - there you can add one-line comments under each entry. For your site I would say it won't matter if it is a question or an answer, everybody should be able to put a comment under the text fields.

Mainly Twitter and coverage in TechCrunch

We got two articles published in techcrunch.com which have had by far the biggest impact in growing Yoomoot.

Other than it's just been a steady trickle from people discovering our Twitter profiles (mainly though us following people who might be interested in us).
