For cripes sake, please, take your filler out of your archive! I beg you!
Please consider, if you are a new reader checking out this AWESOME-LOOKING comic and you go straight to the first page….and it’s some sort of “hey I’m new at this and I’m talking to you and aren’t comics great these are my [...]

Five brave, brave souls volunteered to have their websites reviewed by me based on what I consider a good webcomic set up.  Here is the first of those reviews, for Varethane, the creator of Chirault (a comic which I read and love, BTW).

Before I begin, a note: I don’t ever ever review in the form [...]

Occasionally I still come across a comic with a hard-coded archive. This makes me very sad. Very, very, VERY, sad. Perhaps, if your comic is under 20 pages at completion, I could understand coding each archive page by hand, but when I come across a comic with 50+ pages, and the creator is complaining about [...]

Sometimes you’ve been making webcomics so long you forget about how little you knew when you started.  Yeah, so what if you can make comics? So what if you can make the site? How do you go about putting both those aspects together to create a successful webcomic model?
A huge, huge part of gathering an [...]

The World page is a webpage generally used for fantasy or sci-fi comics that exist in a different world or a different time. This page isn’t a “webcomic website must-have,” or even a “should-have.”  It is something extra, and as a matter of fact, MUST be an extra, because if your comic depends on information [...]

EDIT: before you start to read this, I should warn you.  This is a more heated and opinionated article that’s been boiling in my head in response to a couple forum posts blasting the display off webcomics off the front page. I’m far too passive to go and post this there, but I wanted to [...]

I’m going to present you with a scenario I’ve seen happen far more often that I would like:
So, you really like this one comic, named “Comic”.  It updates 2 days a week, and you are a loyal reader.  The site is very professional looking, and includes the webcomic website must-have pages.  The site is “SO [...]

Networking online can be tedious, boring, repetitive venture. Wait a second, “can be?” Who am I kidding? Not you guys! Networking is a very easy thing to do wrong, a very hard thing to do right, and most people online have enough shame not to do it right. Networking in this sense of course [...]

Continuing in this theme WWM-H’s, let’s move on to the “about” page.  As a webcomic reader, nothing peeves me more than when I see a webcomic I want to read (great visuals!), but one that doesn’t have an about page. I want to know about the story before I read it! Or what about when [...]

Whether you call it the cast page, the character profile page, the “who’s who” page, I don’t care. Second to the archive page, the cast page is the next important secondary webpage on your webcomic website.  Off the top of my head, the only comic I know of who doesn’t need a cast page is [...]
