Thanks for the shoutout @minnowforlife!
I absolutely agree with your tagging advice. I think I’ve found the trifecta of #comics #webcomics and #steem-cartoon to give the best coverage. I tend to make the 4th tag a genre tag, and the 5th a specific tag for the particular comic project to make it searchable & groupable.

The best way to gain exposure and followers is good commenting and discussion. It’s also great to take some time to participate in related competitions and contests. #trialbycomics by @kommienezuspadt is a top recommendation.

@steem-comic-con isn’t dead yet, just very slow due to my time management! I’m working on defining my routine & rules with the project to make sure it’s supportive yet not spammy. Currently I’ve just started doing more resteeming from the account and I do use it’s voting power every day supporting comics & related content. You can check out the skeleton of a dedicated site at www.steemcomicconvention.com which also has a tab directing to the custom ChainBB forum hosted on Steem as well.

Good luck @sidekickmatt, just followed you and I’ll be keeping an eye out for more work!
