How wildly do your comic view numbers go up and down?

Mine swing between low points of about 30, up to 80-90 when I post something new, right up to 150+ sometimes.
Is that a fairly typical spread? Or when you get really popular do you get a more steady amount each day?

As you get more steady readers it evens out. At my peak of updating once a day, I usually stuck within a 50 pageview per day average range.

Edit: This is kind of more comics discussion so Oz or one of the other mods is probably going to move it.

My views kinda yo-yo too. But my comic only has 5 pages so what the hell do I know.

For MAG-ISA, it fluctuates from as low as 50 views per day up to about 800.

However I'm happy that my newest comic BROOD KNIGHT has already 260 pageviews. Considering I just put it up 3 days ago and its a comic with only 4 pages so far.
NOW UPDATING!!!

I would convulse in horror if my pageviews ever displayed 50.

I think mine follow typical cycles - fewer on non-update days. A pretty consistant amount on update days.

There are times when it spikes really high due to some other circumstance (a mention on a blog, a PW ad, the Cameo Caper, etc), but then they even back out to the cycle I mentioned above.

My unique views (according to Project Wonderful) are steady on weekdays (update days M-F) and drop noticeably on weekends. My total page views go up and down (200 to 500) -- usually lower on weekends, but sometimes there's a spike (800-ish).

Gelotology (new comic, updates 1 to 3 times a week) gets 80 or 100 views on update days, 20 to 50 on other days.

I used to have a fairly steady 60-80 on update day and 30-40 on non-update day, then it rose up to 150+ almost every day culminating in 300 right around I hit my hiatus... the moment I announced the return date, pageviews dropped to nearly zero, slowly picking up after the comic has returned, then one strange day peaking at 410 and from that day jumping in violent swings between 40-50 and 100-170, finally going 100 for an entire week only to drop to 60 and below in the last week. And I have no idea what's going on, maybe they were chased away by stupid ads or something :P

Lady Luck's hits are pretty steady, usually within a few tens of 200 a day. 20G's are all over the place, though @~@ anywhere from 50 to 1500. Strangely enough, they both have about the same amount of watchers.

I was a a bit unsure if this was the right place to post this question when I wrote it Iba, but I couldn't see where else it would fit.
It sounds like the stediness of these numbers varies massively!

On update days (and the day before update for some unknown reason) my comic brings anywhere from 200 to 600 page views.

On non update days it averages between 80 and 300.


I still have no idea why the day before update is a great or greater (sometimes) than the update.

I just started this week, but it seems to have an average of 100 or so a day. sometimes 140, sometimes 70, but that's because I update MWF. I'm hoping to get on some listing sites so I can have more soon. :B

I should start using some listing sites, but asking about that is probably for another thread.

Bouncing around between 30/50-200. It's taken me nearly a year to get this far, I can't complain for a niche comic.

Lately it's ranging from 140-450. Average pageviews 80.

dang. I must draw moar ;__;

But considering that I only have 7 pages up... and I was unable to update for a month because of the Bug... it's okay. I guess ._.'''

Umm... on a daily basis, they can drop to as low as 400-500 and go up as high as 1500 (often when I update either the comic or my art pages).

Right now, I'm staying pretty constant at 1500, but I'm sure that will fall soon enough.

Average page views? I think it's somewhere around 300-400... but that's only 'cause of my original pageviews before I got good advertising spot.
Updates Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday's (depends).

7/0
