I suppose that's one way to drop a link <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P>Another would be to include it in your sig, and make mention that one of the links (lets just say for a hypothetical situation, the one going to <A HREF="http://www.lethaldeath.com" TARGET=_blank>Lethal Death</A> ) contains a couple regular comics, as well as a lot of other areas of the site to peruse.<P>You know... because it's a hypothetical situation and all... <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"><P>. . .<P>Silly me. I thought these were the Keenspot forums... didn't realize there were two different UBB's setup. *sigh* Guess this makes post #1.<P>So, I guess this is an official "Hey, I'm new. What up?!" post. Sorta.<P>------------------

The Joester is right. It wasn't until other comics (Stubble, RPG World) advertised my comic that my readership really went through the roof, comparatively speaking.<P>However, don't be obnoxious about getting your comic "out there". Begging people to click links and begging other comickers for a plug is fast way for you to be tagged as the "annoying new kid". (Then again, that goes for any website advertising, be it comic, site, or board adverts.)<P>------------------
