Invite me

Recently, Habré intensified discussions on the production of start-ups. Maybe to add fuel to the fire, and maybe to start a good tradition of a healthy exchange of experience, I want to offer to discuss the topic.

Any site begins with users and actually ends with them. There are many mechanisms for attracting users to the site and I don’t want to list them or organize them. I want to talk about one of them. Invitations.

What is it - a PR move or a panacea?
“Is there a leper colony? Where is Blogistan? ”- I ask myself these questions, and if I ask, I think about these projects. So invites work.
But we know many examples that are developing without the system of invites.

Invites warm interest, this is indisputable. But since we are talking about a startup, it is worth considering, but is it advisable to immediately switch to the system of invites?
My recipe is as follows: we make alpha, an entry for everyone; We start the beta - we introduce invites, and the opportunity to invite is left only to users with high karma . And the most important thing is that the person who invited the new user is now responsible for him, and the change in the karma of the invited person, slightly, but affects the karma of the invited person. I think this is true.
