TopWebcomics is still a thing?

kaetana 2019-09-19 17:47:38 UTC #13

Perfect, thank you!

I see how TopWebComics works (technically), but can anyone say if a simple listing draws readers?

JRHoch 2019-09-19 20:33:52 UTC #15

I totally forgot I was on topwebcomics! It's not like anyone can find me.

How do you get it to link?

writercynknapp 2019-09-19 21:28:06 UTC #16

In TopWebComics, there is [View Favorites] link. When you have marked your comic as a favorite, there is a link to the far right [Create Vote Banner].

Here is mine! I need to update my banner.

Here’s mine!
I actually have noticed an increase in views since joining TWC. Of course it’s mostly helpful on the Top 100. But Top 200 can also get good traffic.

For some reason I can’t do an image link but oh well.

Yup, it works. There is no problem with it.

blingoxxide 2019-09-20 15:02:15 UTC #20

Thank You, I did discover that the link worked for others. Do you have a listing?

faisalhussein394 2019-09-20 16:10:57 UTC #21

No, not yet but one I day will.

blingoxxide 2019-09-24 16:45:43 UTC #22

Has anyone used the 'avatar' system there?

racarter 2019-09-24 16:48:19 UTC #23

I have! After mine got accepted I did notice a boost in views. But unfortunately I don’t actually know how many have seen it.

Iris-Grimoire 2019-09-24 16:58:19 UTC #24

I forgot entirely that you could vote every 24 hours! I should've been boosting mine little by little across the pages instead of thinking it was once per month per person.

writercynknapp 2019-10-01 15:38:32 UTC #25

A new month. I am interested in how the rank fill in. Who wants my votes?

BobbyjoeX 2019-10-01 16:15:09 UTC #26

yeah... how long did it take to be accepted?...

Iris-Grimoire 2019-10-01 16:24:58 UTC #27

Getting accepted there shouldn't have taken too long, make sure you didn't lose the link since I'm STILL trying to find out how to get a non-banner one in Manage Webcomics. I just added myself as a favorite so I'd have a quick way

I've voted on some already on the thread, hopefully this month I can remember I can vote every day instead of just moping that I dropped in ranks so quickly. Any votes are appreciated too!

look at my cool as heck banner on TWC

writercynknapp 2019-10-01 17:39:24 UTC #29

A data point for the first day of the month: at 1:30 PM Eastern Standard Time the "new list" has mostly filled the top 100 with entries that have a vote (or more). The full list nears a 1000 entries with a vote (or more).

Iris-Grimoire 2019-10-01 19:46:29 UTC #30

Interesting! Though it really is intimidating to see people early on the day already reach 100. But for every comic that smashes the top spots, you mind find someone browsing very late pages for new things to read, and it's how I found several ones over the months!

racarter 2019-10-03 18:16:08 UTC #31

Mine took a very long time because the guy who runs the site got into an accident, or had medical issues of some sort. Normally I don't think it takes too long to be accepted but they might have a lot to go through that piled up, idk.

You can ask them on Twitter tho, they were pretty upfront with me.
