Trying to "get it out there" when your site is only one comic deep shows a misapprehension of the medium you are stepping into.
No one is going to care about a webcomic that consists of only one comic, no matter how good it is. And at this early stage, putting emphasis on the attention your work will receive before any substantial work is done will be a severe creative detriment.
Popularity will always be an inscrutable cross product of novelty, quality, dedication, and luck. Unless you catch crazy lightning in a bottle, it will take at least a year to discover how your formula pans out, probably longer.
Don't even bother looking at your stat tracker. Focus on making something good

How are you so prolific? I'm amazed by not only the quality, but ALSO the quantity of your work. Some web comic artists (not mentioning any names) barely manage to pump out a comic per MONTH. My RSS feed runneth over.
there's nothing all that special to it.
personally i find it hard to believe that anyone who struggles to update their comic/whatever in a steady fashion actually cares about it all that much.
enjoyment of the process is the first and most important thing.
and then there are the details, knowing your limits, exactly what you want to accomplish, etc. i'm focused on creating the maximum impact with the most efficient expenditure of energy. max impact in this case means most story output conveyed as effectively as possible. that formula has gotten pretty streamlined with mspa.
then, once you've nailed the formula down: WORK ON IT AS HARD AS YOU CAN
