In fact, it would be a fine thing if Mr Googlebot would visit our site. At the moment he is studiously ignoring poor little Twiggles.
Thank goodness the web is not totally dominated by Google just yet - I’m delighted to say we seem to be making a lot of new friends even without the big search engines.
What the world evidently needs is a custom-built, niche targeted search engine just for online comics and web comics.

No worries:)
Reading every new update of this lovely comic.
Rss-feeds for the win.
Love from Belgium.

Hello Belgium! Thank you for the comment: we’re really glad you are enjoying the adventures of Twiggles and Cobbe.

you find me the software and we’ll throw a grand-opening for a site that does that =)

Well, there are some ‘comic search engines’, unfortunately to search comics they need to be user submitted. OnlineComics.com and TheWebcomicList.com and BelfryComics.net and ChoiceComics.net are all useful for finding webcomics.
I think that’s the closest you can get… OnlineComics is probably my favorite as you can select all the tags you want. Unfortunately, as I said, with a webcomic a search bot could never know ‘oh, that’s a webcomic!’ so it has to be user submitted and not every comic is going to know about every comic site.
It’s a cute comic.

It’s a good point. The big boys need to introduce a new tag just for comics so they can build us into a separate index.
That would be a piece of cake, come to think of it…

I like ohnorobot, though it doesn’t work for silent comics. Its nice since you can search by what comics contain, and it makes it pretty easy to find that one comic that you read like 2 years ago and remember only like one punchline.
I dunno I check onlinecomics.net daily, that’s how i came across this comic iirc
Too bad they are taking like 2 weeks to approve mine
