Webcomics
April 1st, 2008
Remember that webcomic I drew for a couple of months last summer called Zoitz? The one that is on an indefinite hiatus?
Well, for the past nine months it has been averaging less than a dozen visits per day, mostly random search engine traffic. That changed a few days ago.
While I was backpacking at the Grand Canyon, it got picked up on Stumbleupon, and it’s been averaging over 3,000 visits per day (and 5,500 page views per day) since then. Exciting, I guess.
If I did revive it, I would do so with a new style. I wouldn’t feel right continuing to rip off the xkcd style. Too bad I don’t feel inspired to draw anything new.
Thanks for not ripping off XKCD anymore! I just got to your other site from stumbleupon 🙂
I just stumbled upon that site… i love xkcd… i love ur webcomic…
maybe u could get together with xkcd and the two sites could have a baby together? im sure the offspring would be absolutely gorgeous.
take it up, u know i want you to. and thats all that matters.
Well, seeing as how the traffic is actually *increasing* instead of dropping off, I’ve decided to give it another go. New material in the works…
w00t! and is that you flossing in the photo stream?
Yup, that’s me flossing. Scary, eh?
Also, Zoitz has amassed 175,000 views since March 24, so that’s going well, too.
Looks like with a rise in views your comics unfortunately receive a rise in asshat comments. You’ll know you’ve made it really big when my company blocks me from browsing your webcomics – I’ll let you know when that happens.
198,000 now…
I’m totally like 6 of those which means I’m about .00003% of your audience, I feel special.
In yet another development, one has already been ripped off: http://reddit.com/info/6fboz/details
Serves me right for waiting a long time before putting a bug in the corner.
At least 307,000 now, not including the ones from copies that are floating around on their own.
How’s that page view high coming?
I just stumbled upon your comic today. Its brilliant, please continue 😀
