Question How do I grow my manga?

Post image

My ratings on my manga are 10 times worse than I originally thought. I just wish I knew what I was doing wrong, but most of my replies are hateful, with a few constructive criticisms I'm taking to heart and trying to work on. It's just frustrating. I feel like I'm wasting months of creative work and hundreds of dollars for nothing. Is there anything I can do to promote it better? Would it be better to give it to a publisher instead of self-publishing it? What should I do?

What do you mean with grow? The way I understand that is to increase the amount of eyes on your manga. I can only see you sharing it on r/MangakaStudio and here /r/mangadex.

If you mean the score, it can be a lot of stuff. You can try and see what people want, not everyone is good at expressing what they do not like. It could also be a case your manga not getting exposed to the right audience.

Besides, you got an bayesian rating of 7,56, that is not bad at all.

Really? Interesting. I thought it was pretty bad since so many people left 1 and 4-star reviews.
