This is just AMAZING- why haven't more people SEEN this???

Wix's marketing team is on the ball; they know that creators are tired of dancing to Webtoon's tune and are feeling a little burnt about other platforms. I've been running my own webcomic on a personal page since 2013 and there are advantages, but there are also disadvantages. Sooner or later, something will go wrong and you either need to become a techie really quick, or hire someone. But as mentioned, you get to be the captain of your own ship and set your own schedules, look, widgets, etc. that maximize your comic's experience.

This was so useful, thank you ♡, ive made one a while ago when making my first unpublished webtoon, but it was kinda difficult for me, it took longer than id like to get stuff set up and i wasnt too happy with it. I love that you made this video and i feel more comfortable to try it again ♡♡♡

Bruh, this is super cool. I like that you can take pages off the subscription plan as new pages come out so there's a reason for people who cannot pay to still come back and keep reading like on webtoon, and those that can afford to pay can still contribute.

I’ve been trying to figure out a way to publish comics for I while and haven’t found anything I really liked until I saw this

[LizzieShiro]

I was struggling with this one for a while! Finally!

What an amazing video Walter. Incredibly helpful bro. Alway planned on make my own website for my series manly to have full artistic freedom of the website. This tutorial was such a huge help.👍😁

Thank you so much for sharing this, it's super useful and simple!
I'm wondering though, what if you wanted to monetize the website with Ads instead using Google Adsense, do you have an idea whether it's doable? And how easy/hard it would be to implement?
Running a subscription model is an amazing way to earn. But in reality, most people would want to read for free, and would rather wait than pay that $1/month. Thus, that would make the website more of a liability than an asset. I believe running ads can bring good compensation to us creators for the views we'd receive.
