What is wrong with you? (I don’t really mean that, I promise!)
Everyone out there who has a wordpress blog (with comicpress, inkblot or slideshow), you need to realize something right now: WP is SET-UP to get you search referrals, to have multiple types of archives, and to easily navigate your posts/pages. It does this through [...]
Posts tagged ‘SEO’
So you have Wordpress, but you’re not using tags or categories?
Displaying the Webcomic OFF the Home Page…CORRECTLY.
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 [...]
Advertising 202: Ad Providers
Now that you know how to place ads (and therefore design space in your site to put them), now it’s time to move on to ad providers.
Most people in webcomicdom know, use and love Project Wonderful. This post is not about Project Wonderful. PW is AWESOME for the average webcomicker looking to advertise his or [...]
Does Webcomic SEO work?
Does webcomic SEO work? After the attention I’ve been giving the topic, I certainly hope so! I will use my own site for an example. Over the past couple months, I’ve slowly been optimizing everything I can. I’ve added link titles and alts, image titles and alts, meta descriptions (even though these are now [...]
SEO, by Google. It’s gotta be good!
For those of you intrigued by my very shallow presentation of SEO, Bengo of The Floating Lightbulb published an article about a recent release by Google of an SEO guide. If it was released by Google, it’s gotta be good!
Read more about it there!
Also, Bengo and Pug’s comic, L’il Nyet, can be found here.
Tips and Tricks: Link Anchors and Titles
To follow up the long list of things I think everyone should have on their webcomic sites, I’m now going to talk about one way to organize all that information on a single page. After making webpages for so many different sites, something I realize now is that website visitors don’t want to be directed [...]
Webcomic Website Must-Have’s: The About Page
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 [...]
Improving SEO: webpage names and titles
Another trick to increasing your site’s SEO is giving your webpages descriptive file names. This has its pros and cons, some of which are not so obvious. For example, take Palace in the Sky, coded and created by Scribe of Ladystar. The file names of the gateway webpages are descriptive, for example, “top-fantasy-webcomics.php.” [...]
Improving SEO: images, links, titles and alts
If your site is anything like most webcomic sites, it’s very “graphic” heavy. There’s your title image, your navigation menu composed of images instead of text, your comic itself, and your comic navigation arrows. If your site is also anything like mine, you’ve named these images something unoriginal like “09_title.jpg.”
