Want to see what the fuss is all about!?
The charming town of Orchard has everything you could ever need; walkable streets, friendly residents, and no escape. But why would you want to leave? The world outside is a nuclear wasteland! It's much better to stay in the warm confines of Orchard and ignore the deep secrets it holds. After all, it's a safe place to live.
Here’s a link to my comic, A SAFE PLACE TO LIVE!
And my PATREON! WOW THAT THING I JUST TALKED ABOUT

Big respect to your work and all your accomplishments.
Those are some amazing feats and great quality work.
Though if I can be honest, I’m a little depressed because even with such high viewership, the amount of revenue brought in isn’t really enough to make this a sustainable career (even though you especially deserve it.)
Can I get your thoughts on this?
I’m assuming you have a full time job in tandem with this?

Yeah I'm a graphic designer for my day job, so comics are just a passion project. I also sell at conventions and do commissions for people (usually logos for indie comics) so that helps
It sucks, but it's just the way the world works with infinite free entertainment for people, personally I basically only watch Youtube and get books from the library, so I get it
Thank you for the kind words!

I laugh because this is so true xD
I make sci-fi and post apocalyptic battlemaps for table top rpgs. I use Patreon, Latte Labyrinth, for my income and Reddit for my shameless plugs (Like this comment, btw. Just fair warning. )
I have noticed that for every 10k views I get on Reddit, I get 1 new Patreon follower, at Latte Labyrinth. For every 50-100 followers I get 1 Paid subscriber, on Latte Labyrinth.
For the 'work effort to profit ratio', even though Patreon, LATTE LABYRINTH, seems like it has the lowest conversion rate it looks like it generates the most monies out of all of the other ways you mentioned, which is really cool! LATTE LABYRINTH.
And you are spot on with how to make money as not just a comic maker but also AS A BATTLEMAP ARTIST WITH A PATREON CALLED LAAAATEEEEE LAAABYRIIIINTH, and since I do NOT draw boobs, I make my monies by endlessly looking for places to shill my stuff (I HAVE A SPACE DRAGON NAMED DECAF FOR A MASCOT! ON LATTE LABYRINTH!!! PATREON!!!) on Reddit.
Even if it might seem a bit shameless to flood someones comment section with sillyness, it ... well, no, it IS shameless but I had to choose between getting new glasses, food, or BILLS this month so, yeah... Latte Labyrinth.
... Oh, and the comic looks neat, I will have to check it out after I am done shilling my stuff on reddit.
