My webcomics series, called "My 25 Percent" ([link]), has just got its small share of publicity. It was mentioned (in a few words) in an article by Ynet, one of Israel's most popular news portals (if not THE most popular).
Those of you who can read Hebrew can view the article here:

The publicity made the trick, and the amount of traffic that I got in the day the article was published was amazing. According to my Google Analytics account, around half of the visitors that browsed my site took interest in more than just the front page (a good sign), and I also got some nice ratings for some chapter by a few of the visitors (a really good sign!).

Eventually the effects of the article will wear off, and traffic rate in my webcomic site will return to its regular, mediocre size. But the feeling of achievement is still there. Being an amateur artist, the ability to make it to a leading news portal is a real confidence booster.

It's one small step for my comic, one giant leap for my confidence as an artist!
