Patreon Update · 3:57pm Jan 8th, 2019
I'm restructuring my Patreon.
Mildly.
Basically, because nobody ever took the tiered patron options, I took them out and made commission slots instead. Basically the same thing, slightly more expensive, but as anybody can opt in at any time I think it works out better for those who want rewards. Details here. And on my userpage, if you care for that.
Also: One of my most generous patrons had to, for reasons of their own, lower their payment. I'm not saying that I blame them, but I do rely on Patreon to pay the bills. And the only way to increase my Patreon earnings, other than put out more content (which I am trying to do) is to either get more patrons or convince current patrons to increase their payments. I don't know how to do that, really. If any of my followers could spread the word, convince their friends to lend just a few dollars per chapter, it would REALLY help out.
I think I've said this before, and you were against it?
Or just didn't know how?
But, put a Patreon link into your Profile Description thing?

Estee isn't a fair comparison, any more, because their situation is way different...
But, I want to say, "Make a TVTropes page for your fics, to get views", but I'm a troper, so I'm biased. Estee also has the whole big Triptych thing,..
But Vongoalyken has about the same financial status as you, on Patreon, and they've got way less followers...
Then there's the "But how many of your followers are paying attention..."
Marketing / Advertising Calculations / stuff, is hard.
