Some Thoughts on the Economy and the Web Industry and Independent Comics
2009-02-09 13:45:00 I promise that the new webcomic won't take over my whole blog, but temporarily the webcomics medium is on my mind a lot. So I chanced upon this heart-tugging message by Max Cannon, creator of the strip "Red Meat". Now, I adore Red Meat and all, and I agree with many of the points here, but I'd just like to re-assure those of you who are worried that the recession is going to nuke all of your favorite content online. Specifically, neither my website nor my comic pays for itself directly, nor do I expect it to. But it's so cheap, I can go on doing it for a hobby indefinitely. I don't know how it is for anybody else out there, but for me I spring (I think I remember) $15 per year for domain registration and then $10 per month for hosting. Granted, not the luxury package that can handle infinite traffic, but adequate for my needs. Compare my other vices: I blow about $30 per month on coffee (grinding my own for homemade espresso) and $15 per month, tops, on pipe tobacco. Just tre...
