I’d guess that you need a CDN and caching much more than you need a beefier server. Even something free like CloudFlare and a simple nginx cache directive would probably make a massive difference.
Hey, Emulsifier, I don’t know if you handle everything about the website.. but I wanted to mention to someone; the link to the “first” comic is identical to the link to the current/latest comic! There is no easy way to get to the first one to read the comics in order.. even in changing the URL, the very beginning isn’t ?p=1. I clicked through hundreds and eventually made it there, but it was very frustrating and might put new viewers off!

Oh hey thanks, I had no idea that there were free CDN providers. Setting up now, thanks.

Sorry for linking to the site on reddit. Someone posted one of your comics without crediting you so I just mentioned akimbocomics in the comments.
