Offer HN: Get Equity in Our Startup If You Can Help Us Get Traction

Like any start-up, it can be tough to get any significant traction. So, we are offering equity to someone that might have the resources/connections to help us get forum owners to add their forum to Agalanche, a forum aggregator. The equity is front loaded and tapers off as more forums are added to Agalanche. There are already 7 forums on Agalanche, so 93 more to go to reach 1.0% equity.

The Fine Print -- The equity is vested when a certain number of forums are aggregating: -- 100 forums = 1.0%; 250 forums = 2.0%; 500 forums = 2.5%; 750 forums = 3.0% -- The forums that are added should be established forums (at least a thousand topics/threads or so) and not forums you just created -- The added forums should have low spam content -- We cannot afford a lawyer to write up a special document, so hopefully a dated/signed/notarized letter should be sufficient for the equity agreement -- We are not looking for someone to copy/paste Agalanche onto every single forum/website in existence because that doesn't make a good impression.

As another option, if you (or a company) own several larger forums that are established with active users we could also extend an equity option to you if you added all your forums.
