    Webcomic promotion with stumbleupon.com

    Do you guys know about http://stumbleupon.com? I just learned about it. It allows users to rate websites they visit by clicking a "like" button that is part of the plug-in you can download. Popular websites are suggested to other users, so that you can potentially generate a lot of traffic this way.

    It's pretty easy to install the plug-in and then start rating other webcomic sites. Then if you "like" your own website, you can generate a bunch of hits for yourself.

    If anyone is interested, I would like to do a click exchange where we "like" each others comics so that we can collectively generate more traffic for ourselves.

    Here is my comic, if anyone wants to "like" it:

    http://astro.berkeley.edu/~tpiro/comics/

    If you post to this thread and "like" my comic, I'll be sure to "like" you back! If you give a review I think it is even better, and I will of course reciprocate.

    Hi Tony, I think this is a great idea. Our site (I'm the webmaster, not the artist) Grade D But Edible was recently put at the top of stumble's algorithm or something and we got over 1000 hits in 24 hours! Sicne then it's dropped off, there must be something that makes a site popular on their list I guess.

    Anyway, I checked out your comic and I definitely like it! Unfortunately I'm posting this on my lunch break at work and stumble is blocked here, but I've bookmarked everything in del.icio.us and when I get home tonight I'll give you a thumbs-up in stumble!

    If you check out our comic and like it then please stumble us back. Also I'm really starting to cross-promote the comic so if you're interested we could possibly work out a link or banner exchange between us! You can reach me at swarmee@gmail.com.
