Reviews for "#68 - Streamers"
Interesting discussion and this website inspires me to be creative. There is so much for someone to see read and hear. Animation is not easy at all so I like anyone who does any passionate work.
Xinxinix responds:
Agreed !!
As someone who's also new to the Newgrounds community...kinda*. This sort of stuff is good to know about. For me I've been desperately trying to get attention on Twitter, but like you've mentioned: it's freaking impossible when you're just starting-out. I've been posting art on twitter everyday since February, and even that's not enough.
*(I always knew about the website when I was younger, but I thought it died-out with Flash when I was older)
Now I don't have plans for any sort of contests, but I'm glad to hear that I can just ask the community and even Tom Fulp for advice and whatnot to get it going smoothly.
As for the Streamers guy (sorry, forgot his name). I have one bit of advice: don't just call your project "Streamers" 'cause that's going to be a Google search nightmare. Though, you've also accidentally solved that problem with your Patreon name: "Streamers' Universe". Changing your project name to that will make it much easier to search for 'cause it's more specific.
Streamers responds:
Ay I'm glad you got as much out of this as I did!
Lool I'm with ya - I'm hyper aware of the poor searchability of "Streamers" ( 'Streamers Universe' does well but... hindsight 20/20). I'm considering changing it but I'd like to wait and see how the Animation War plays out. If people are drawn to the concept and stick around after to help grow the project, then community input will certainly impact the decision. I still think that the overall concept and our original goals with the first season are well encapsulated by the name but you're correct, SEM/SEO needs to be considered and there are more creative options out there for sure.
Thanks for explaining what this project is. Much luck to ya.
