Where do you share your graphics-heavy stories?

I almost put 'graphic stories' but that means something else these days.

So, a lot of us get into Daz Studio because we want to tell stories. Those of you who have progressed to actually making those stories, where do you post them? 

Are you making a standard graphic novel? A highly illustrated prose story? Stories through pure art? If you post it on your own website, what's your readership/viewership like? Would you consider posting it on a community site if something met certain criteria? If so, what are those criteria?

If you do post it on some kind of community/specialized site, what do you like about that site?

    Find what I'm making by clicking the Taiduo banner. Its a grafic novel/ comic, with rather reduced text. Right now I'm publishing on webtoons and advertise on top webcomics, but as I can use some more readers, I'd be happy for more advertisement options. Its only 8 updates so far so I'm not yet sure who the peeps are that follow. Besides that I publish it in pieces on dA where the people I had contact before are mostly the ones who follow that as well.

    I like webtoons for the format it uses and that it a large commmunity over there who potentially could be readers. Posting is free, the problen is that with the amount of other comic published there the time its visible on the front page of "discover" is rather limited and its a long way to get featured. A lot of the webcomic I like to read are published over there. Difficulty is that its hard to advertise for other ones outside webtoons (no banner exchange).

    My Hawkins Strongbox project (can be accessed via the link below) was designed specifically for a blog format and is hosted on Blogger.  Hawkins Strongbox is rather non-traditional, non-linear storytelling that incorporates text and graphics but not in a graphic novel format.  It's more like a virtual DK style book or interactive "vault" or "archive" type book that has been popular in recent years.  DS is just one of the tools I use in the design production.  I have also used replica prop and actual model building (although most of that content hasn't been posted just yet.  I found Blogger very, very easy to use as I am not in any way close to being an HTML wizard.

    http://www.comicgenesis.com/ is still a thing, especially helpful for people who don't know how to program HTML very well.

    My own website, (below) I get about 100 hits/day without advertising
    except a listing at Topwebcomics that doesn't get many views.
    The man who designed my website did a great job for a great price. His
    contact information is in the upper right corner of my page, if you want your own.
    Finding a web designer who could do webcomics was a huge pain in the seating surface.
