You don’t need a subscription to read today’s post!

If you’ve ever been curious about the kind of information, tutorials and advice that you’ll get as part of your subscription to Webcomics.com, this is a good example.

If you’d like to join the site, you can get a 12-month subscription for $30 — or you can get a one-month Trial for $5 … with no obligation after your 30 days expire.  For less than three bucks a month, you can get a steady flow of information, tutorials and advice targeted towards your webcomic business — plus a private forum to discuss issues with other professionally minded cartoonists.

Here’s a nifty trick to get your most best-performing ads — the ones with the highest click-through rates — in front of your readers’ eyes first. According to Google, this has a noticable affect on ad revenue.

• First, you will need to place a DIV tag right below the BODY tag in order to let the browsers know which ad unit goes first in the source code HTML. Note that it doesn’t mean that this ad unit will show up first on the page. Here is the code:<div id=”ad1″>
  Insert your ad code here
  </div>

 

• Next, insert the CSS code below into the style sheet of your Web site. I’ve drawn a line through all of the information you’ll need to adjust to fit your site’s specificiations:#ad1 {
  width: 468px;
  height: 60px;
  position: absolute;
  left: 140px;
  right: 0px;
  bottom: 0px;
  top: 350px;
  }

 

• If you don’t use style sheets, you will need to insert the above code into DIV tags between the HEAD tags in the HTML source code.<style type=”text/css”>
  Insert above css code here
  </style>
