Hey buddy,
Yeah, Gar is right i do put my stuff up on comixology…but it takes a loooooooong time.
After you have set your account up, when you upload a comic it takes around three months for it to finally go live and you need to remember that they take 50% of whatever you charge, so its not really a great way to make money…but is a good way to grow readership and get your name out there…just don’t expect to be able to by a boat with all the fat cash you think you’ll make! ;)
You also have comichaus too…a lot small but more geaered towards small and indie comics and they because its a subscription service rather then buy issues…if you comic gets read you get a bit of cash, but again…its not mega bucks.
you also have drivethru comics….I’ve never used it, but i am aware of it….
its a strange coincidence, but i’m building my new shop as i saw this message pops up and rather than going down the big cartel route…which is free for up to five items…then $10 per month for up to 25 items…I’ve decided to do a shopyfi store, which will also allow me to sell my books digitally and i have to do nothing. just put them on the site and upload them (with a shopyfiy app) and when someone orders them they get a download link…
HOWEVER…its like $30 per month but i know i can cover that through digital and physical sales, because i have a little bit of a following and with my youtube channel the audience is starting to grow, so thats why i am doing it…but if you don’t have that readership base YET, id stick to the free options, comixology, comic haus and setting up a bigcartel store!
hope it helps…always here to reach out too…
i will be covering selling on the youtube channel too, but wont be recorded for a month or so…got a few more things to cover first!
