G'day

I understand how blogging is very, very difficult these days with Google SEO being VERY hard to work with.

I see you are considering starting a Patreon channel for your paid stuff. Consider Ko-Fi in place of Patreon. I only suggest this as it's a good platform for one off purchases or for ongoing memberships and with memberships, Ko-Fi does not take a cut!

Oh, yeah! I hadn't even considered Ko-Fi as a place to try out. I haven't ever dug into their full offerings, just one-off donations to people. One of the new features that is making me consider Patreon is because they now have a "store" option you can use to deliver digital goods. Which I think is pretty sorely needed. I will check out Ko-Fi right now, thanks!

Oh Yeah,

Ko-Fi has;

Memberships - for ongoing monthly support

Shop - For Digital or Physical sale

Commisions - Let fans commision an offer from you for drawings, writing, video messages and more

Discord - Connect to your Discord server

Streaming - Connect to Twitch or Youtube as an overlay

Quite a bit caught my attention to make the preference to use Ko-Fi in place of Patreon
