What is your like to sub ratio? Do you prefer more likes or subs?

(I'm at about 2 likes per sub).

For my sereis, from oldest to yougest it's
15 likes per sub for


14 for

and 19 for

All 3 are currently over 200 updates long btw xD

About 28,7 likes per sub. Not the best considering I have 497 episodes :joy:
I think I equaly like both likes and subs! Subs tell me that someone is interested in my story enough to get updates. And seeing that someone is liking every page while reading is also a great feeling :smiley: and seeing likes on new pages from regular readers :heart: so both, definitely both

Oh yeah, it's great when you can see by the likes notification when someone is going through your whole series xD You leave for a moment, go back and go "Oh, you're here already, buddy? :D"

yeah but the overall are focus on the first and second episode and than puff they gone. And some are mine editing the crap out of my grammer, and visuals

10,5 per sub, which is not good as I have more than 140 episodes xD but that's what I see happening in recent uploads, about 10% of people who reads, likes the chapter. So it seems about right.

I personally like more likes cuz I know people are reading xD I have way too many ghost subs so yeah, I'm not really into those numbers anymore. Obviously I want more people to know my work and I'm always trying to promote my work for it, but my focus now is to make a work that is likable.

I'm at 72:34 so 2.11 likes per sub for my most popular series, (My excerpt series) and 123:42 so 2.92 likes per sub overall. (My excerpt series combined with my Novel concept art and short story series)

Right now my excerpt series has ~20 episodes, my concept arts has around 11 episodes and my short story series has 4 episodes.

I'm around 0.59 likes per sub. I guess that's fair since I have only 12 episodes.

64 likes / 15 subs, so a little over 4 likes per sub. Right now, my story has 119 episodes.

Ah, I didn't see the other question at first. I prefer likes, honestly. Those better help determine whether a story is popular or trending, at least I've been told. Plus, they're better proof that someone's reading. I mentioned this in another thread, but I think most of my subs are just subbed to my story as a bookmark. I'm happy they're thinking about reading at all, but that doesn't translate to actual readers.

Long series w very few subs, so it's a just under a 10:1 ratio

I want more subs.
I currently have 74 likes / 11 unique subs. 9 subs on A Fresh Friend and 5 on Shatterswap.
Links if you want to help

So my series has around 96 subs (technically 97 but for some reason tapas doesnt count that 1) and a total of 209 likes. Dividing 209 by 96 is 2.17708333. Lets just say its 2.2 likes per sub.


As for the second question, likes over subs any day. For me, more likes means more interaction with readers. Sure having a big sub number is nice and all but if your interaction with readers (ie likes) doesnt compensate for that number, is your series actually successful?

602,576 likes, 2,033 subs, so I got about 297 likes per sub or something like that. Personally I prefer likes over subs since it shows the person is actually reading the comic, while subs can just be dead numbers. Like, I'm pretty sure most of my subs are dead ones, or at least a good chunk are.
