Hi Everyone,

I recently launched a kickstarter for an original comic I'm trying to produce. You can check it out here.

I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations of places I could try to promote it. I've tried reaching out to various comic book and manga focused blogs and websites, but generally I haven't heard back from any of them and I'm having a difficult time getting traffic for my project. I even tried buying an add on reddit, but that didn't help generate traffic either. I even reached out to a guy at breadpig who'd handled several comic book kickstarters and this was his response.

Every campaign involves connecting to fans you have an potential fans. It is incredibly hard to cold launch a comic or project when you don't have even a small fanbase behind you.

The best course of action is to throw the pages up on a website, promote it for a few months, get a few thousand daily readers, then try the campaign when that happens.

If any of you had any tips I'd love to hear them.
