Because of this we got reported and removed from the front page - which is understandable in hindsight.
We believe in our wireframing solution and would like to share it with the world. Is there a chance to post again on HN without getting banned? Or do you have other suggestions to go public?
Honestly, I think you'll be better served thinking about how to create a repeatable process for acquiring customers rather than worrying about one time traffic hits from HN.
Maybe if you just re-posted without the appeal to your fans, you'd see how well your product and pitch resonate with the HN community.
Without knowing the context, it sounds like you didn't get banned for the content of the posting, but for asking your existing users to come and upvote you en masse. That's generally considered to undesirably skew the voting, and will get detected and flagged.

We posted merely 2 weeks ago. So, many HN users could down-vote it because of that. What do you think?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
You can't downvote links on HN. You only have to worry about not receiving upvotes.
Sorry, I meant getting flagged.
I'd be more worried about getting the domain banned from HN in regards to reposting it. But that probably won't happen unless you do it a lot.
