I think there are many reasons. For me, it was a lifelong quest to find the truth. Various protestant churches claim to have the truth, that getting to the bottom of that quest, a long with several scriptures told me that there was more.

I think for like most, the internet was where we found out about Orthodoxy first. It was a Youtube video titled something about "the true church". When I discovered that the Orthodox church can trace their history back to the apostles, that was a big reason for me.
