    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.

    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.

      This video is extremely helpful. I tried this out and successfully made a test website. I learned a lot. But I realized that the quality of my images/pages are good on the laptop, but when I read it on my phone. It's very compressed. It very visibly ruins the quality and reading experience. Is this fixable? If yes, how ?
      Did anyone else also have this problem?
      Note: I am using the free version. So maybe that's just the issue.

    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.

    Hi Walter, Thank you for all these helpful videos. I wanted to ask you how you have to do to be able to translate your comic. I noticed that when we change the language in the webtoon application, we can see a translated comic for example. Do we have to create a second comic in English to be able to do this? For example, I have a comic in French, I would also like to offer it in English. How should I do it ? Thank you for your time if possible and I wish you a great day.
