Tapastic Vs. Line Webtoon: Which Is Best For Posting Webtoons?

Before discussing which one is better for posting Webtoons, I would like to give a short introduction on what Webtoons are actually? So, you all read the comics in childhood, aren't you? Yes, of course. We all have read comics of our favorite heroes in comic books like X-men and Tinkle etc. But Webtoon has changed the game! Now the children of the 21s century don't read; they watch.

A South Korean development company, Naver Corporation has introduced Webtoon as a Webtoon Publishing portal in 2004. This platform is mostly unknown to most people outside Korea but famous when Manhwa (general Korean term for comics and print cartoons) went viral. This platform is as famous as known all over the world in different languages.

• In Korea: Naver Webtoon
• In Japanese: Line Manga
• In Chinese: Dongman Manhua

Before 2014 this platform is only restricted to Korea. They were unable to provide their services outside the country. But in 2014, this platform is launched globally by Naver as Line Webtoon. Now we are on the topic of what is best for posting Webtoons, Tapastic or Line Webtoon? We’ll review as much as possible features of both to make that clear for you, so you get familiar with the pros and cons of the two most famous webcomic websites. After that final result will be in conclusion at the end of the article.

The difference between Tapastic Vs Line Webtoons

1. Notification Settings

Everyone wants and likes to read people's comments on their comic page immediately and respond to them quickly, right? Well, Tapas notifications are there for you. They also notify you of comments on older pages and allow you to go to them and respond to what readers are saying and make them realize that you are listening to them.

On the other hand, Line Webtoon doesn't inform you about each comment; they'll only notify you when someone responds to your comment in particular. They don't send emails of old comic pages. Firstly, then don't send out emails when they send! The flood of emails will accumulate in your mailbox. Everybody wants to be notified manually.

2. Message Settings

Above, we discuss notifications for likes and comments, but it also about messaging. In Tapas, if you want a private chat with another user? Just message them. While you want to get rid of private chat? Just block them. So simple.

It's challenging to work together and build a community when you have to redirect links to other sites and apps. I've asked for it because I've faced it. Whenever I wanted to chat with my fellows on Webtoon, I have had to scour through their social media links! And even in the case of a fan, not going to happen.

3. Statistics-Subscribers and page views

The number of subscribers and digits of page views per month matters. The sites which provide precise analytics to get you to know about how things are going and statistics help you figure that out quite quickly. There is another important point to be noted here that which webcomic website provides detailed statistics. Take a look at Line Webtoon first.

Webtoon analytics includes page views, subscriptions, and updates only. It doesn't include entire analytics of past years. That is very little information or even useless, maybe.

While Tapastic gives the details of the entire past year, page views, comments, and likes and subscriptions with detail, they look straightforward and similar to the Webtoon but believe me, that's amazing.

4. Easier Publishing

Which one of the two; Webtoon or Tapas? Easier to post episodes?

You can't schedule posts in Line Webtoon. You have to do all the work manually for each post, which is very time-consuming. While in the case of Tapas, you can schedule your posts, put personal alarms, and everything that helps to make publishing easy for you.

I also found it very interesting that Tapas post your scheduled posts exactly on time what you've scheduled. You can create posts, put them in drafts, delete or post, or make new ones. Besides, in Line Webtoon, you've to delete an already made draft post to make changes in it.

Tapas will allow you to post Gifs even if you are not a sponsored creator, so that's pretty much for you.

5. Visitors Per Month

Now that is the winning point for Webtoon due to which comic stories creators are ready to bear any difficulties from Webtoon. According to the stats by Similarwebs.com, Webtoon gets 47.88 million visitors on their website every month, while the Tapas with all facilities gets only 8.89 million site views per month. So, that is why Webtoon is more recommended as compared to the Tapas.

Conclusion

That’s true about Tapas that they are providing facilities enough to make the life of comic story creators reliable but, in the end, everyone needs visitors. That's why I think it is with Webtoon, and I recommend it to you if you are a comic story creator.
