Time for the second installment of websites in focus! For those who haven't heard of The Oatmeal, it's a popular comedy site based on comics/infographics and a certain artistic style. I personally think it's a hilarious website.
The site has more than just comics, it also has quizes such as how many Justin Beibers can you take in a fight, or how long can you survive chained to a bed with a velociraptor. The site has an awesome graphic after the quizes that you can use to share you results, I posted one of mine below.

Aside from having great content, I noticed this guy is an expert at promoting his site. The sharable, graphical results of the quiz above are a great idea and he uses social media like a champ. Even if you don't find the site interesting (which I would be shocked if you don't) you can still learn a few things from looking at how this site promotes itself.
Check it out!

ReplyDeleteI would have survived 1 minute and 25 seconds, haha. The site is pretty cool, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAnd I don't like to promote or spam, but can you check out my new blog and tell me in the comments what you think?

ReplyDeleteI used to get links for the comics there but I never thought to check everything else the site has. I definitely will now, the raptor quiz was fun, thanks for the share!
