It all started from the beginning. The beginning of this was a note in someone's blog about a certain governor who delays planes by force of will. Fantasy did not go far and quickly painted a picture of the world in which the governor delays the speed of rotation of the planet. So the first picture appeared. I put the picture on the file hosting, and I showed the link to it to my friend. The friend did not like the link, but the picture, on the contrary, caused a smile. When a smile appeared on the faces of a dozen acquaintances, the idea came to draw a second picture.
This project has probably the shortest prehistory you have ever seen. And the essence of the project is as follows. Around a lot of news. It is impossible to hear about all of them, but there are some really outstanding pieces. Such news that we, as mere mortals, simply cannot digest without the thought “are you serious ?!”. Based on such news, my friends and I decided to write scripts and draw comics.
- Why do you draw and publish comics? - Because we can. Monetizing a project is quite simple. Here are a series of consecutive steps that are planned.
Large advertisers, like Samsung or MTS, will be placed directly in the pictures. Those. there is a boxer in the ring, and behind the LCD panel with the word SONY, there is a retro Tivoli Audio receiver on the referee’s table and the audience drinks Coca-Cola.
Each picture will not be shown immediately, but after a short promotional video in the size of the picture.
Advertising banners on the right and left of the page. The site has a fixed width - only 800px, which means that there will be two vertical banners on both sides. A total of four around the edges. Plus a horizontal plate 800x200 after each picture.
Happy Sponsor. After the picture is published, it is proposed to send an SMS to a short number with a maximum price. Who managed to do it first, the text of the lucky one is fixed after the picture forever.
The way to take money directly from users is Freemium. Those who do not pay will only show the first three frames of the comic. In paid accounts it will be possible not only to see the fourth frame, but also to see the sketches and the initial version of the script.
Tote. Visitors send SMS with the assumption of who will be devoted to the next comic script. Topics are given to choose from, payments are made by replenishing the balance of a mobile phone.
I think that by this time it became obvious even to the inveterate cynic that I was joking. The project is not supposed to receive benefits (oh yes, oh yes, for how long?). The cost of it, by my standards, almost no. How to get tired of sucking my paw, I'll hang it in the footer sapu :-) ')
Tell me, at least a little bit funny on the site? What to improve? What to throw out?
