Webcomic Promotion


So, let's talk webcomic promotion possibilities.

Aside from posting "HYPE!" type threads here or at Talk About Comics, what are some other types of good, legitimate webcomic promotion out there to be had?

I've got a unique conundrum, because my webcomic only appears at Girlamatic, so archives are not free, therefore I can't really build an audience the "normal" way. I have to find alternate methods.

I recently bought banner ad space at Comixpedia. I might keep doing that, it's cheap.

Anyone else?

All in one place, links to some new webcomics:

The Agency is a manga-esque comic about secret agents.

Gemini Bright, is the story of Matt, a bored teen taken on a family outing to Las Vegas. Upon encountering some magic kitsch, he is transported into an alternate universe populated with half-man/dragons and other weird creatures.

Counting the Cracks is a journal comic about the life of a student in Austraila.

Silly Cone V isn't actually new but it is toiling towards the completion of its third year under the crippling burden of a complete lack of artistic skill. When reached for comment, the author Scrubbo said "What? Somebody reads that crap? GET OFF OF MY LAWN! YOU DAMN KIDS!"
