Ask HN: How to get lucky with Hacker News?

I keep reading overnight success stories of people, who posted their new products on HackerNews and in no time those products got a great traction. For e.g.

https://crew.co/backstage/blog/how-side-projects-saved-our-startup/

I am a Hacker News member since many years now. I admit that I am not a very active one and very few times I have interacted with the community. But I believe there are many like me and still they have tasted more success than me.

What am I doing wrong? Is there a better time to post on Hacker News? Should I do something else after posting it on Hacker News for e.g. ask some member to review it, etc.? What am I missing?
