What are the Patreon rewards that the most

[AdrenalineShots]

Successful webcomic creators on Patreon use? Are they extravagant or fairly unexciting? Do you think that the rewards are what enticed people to become a patron and remain a patron?

I don't know how well it works because I haven't tried it yet for mine, but more often than not I see people releasing their webcomic pages early on theirs.

[AdrenalineShots]

Yeah I was thinking about adding quite a few rewards then though that maybe will distract from creating. Tu comic pages a little torn!

I have early access which is like 1 week earlier than regular updates for patrons. I have the most patrons in that teir and I already work on the comic ahead of time so it actually helps me be more organised in a way.

"What are the patreon rewards that successful creators use?" is something that you can look into for yourself! It's gonna be different for different creators, so take a look at comics that are where you want to be, and find some that have patreon campaigns, and then see what those folks are offering, see which rewards have the most patrons pledging and what rewards are working for them!

Great thanks much appreciated

This is a pretty good site to play around with. It's a compilation of all the creators on Patreon. You can sort by category as well to find the niche you belong to. You'll have to separately find them on the patreon website since there's no direct link that takes you to each creator's profile but it's worth it.

-Hope that helps

I have only a handful of patrons, 11 to be exact, but I actually make $50 a month with just 11 people. Over half of them pay $5 or more a month, which is great! I don't know if that counts as successful, but I did notice more support after I changed the rewards to be more content based. Like as in they're getting extra parts of the story that others don't because they pay.

The $5 a month patrons get 4-koma comics that usually add a bit more characterization and fun tidbits to the characters that don't make it into the story, which seems to be appealing to a lot of them cause I had a few people up their pledges from $1 to $5 after I made that change and the newer patrons will more than likely choose the $5 tier right off the bat. And for me it's not a ton of extra work, just a one-page 4 panel comic a month.

So I would say don't just do early access but give them extra story-related content that can only be found on the patreon page.
